People keep saying Trump term II is the most corrupt administration ever, so I built a model to find out if it was true.
I took the UN's definition of corruption, turned it into eight criteria and 100 points, and scored the leaders history remembers for looting their countries: Marcos, Suharto, Mobutu, Abacha, Obiang, Putin.
Then I put every president since Eisenhower on the same scale, both parties, with every exoneration counted right alongside the convictions.
Nixon scored 41 and no other American President scored over a 25.
Trump's second term scored a 91, which ties him with Suharto and Mobutu and puts him above Marcos and Abacha.
So he is not only the most corrupt president in American history. At this pace he finishes his term level with the most corrupt rulers of the last hundred years.
PSA: don't come in my comments arguing about the results if you haven't read the full article, because ignorance is a choice.
Full article is up now on my Substack (link in bio) and it's free.
@vonderleyen "The elements of official support" does not cut it. It was full blown official support minus president Vučić present. If you cannot see it, get a new glasses
Je li gospodin Puhovski prespavao zadnjih pet godina? Kako može usporediti uništavanje tvornica, rafinerija i skladišta s ubijanjem, silovanjem i otmicama koje provodi Rusija?
Kaže naš dežurni stručnjak opće prakse: "Nitko se ne usudi reći da Ukrajina zadnjih mjeseci ozbiljno krši međunarodno humanitarno pravo. Ona napada više tisuća kilometara od linije fronte vojne i komercijalne objekte i širi teror, strah kod stanovništva."
@SasaSimpraga Nije mi jasna ova objava. Ako se ne varam, najstariji zagrebački park je Maksimir, a u njemu su železni franceki oduvijek. Ili mislite na nešto drugo?
