No, I'm saying that the slide didn't start with Trump. I also don't think much of what Trump is doing is much, if at all, worse than his predecessors but he has zero shame about it.

Since he's in the news and it's on my mind, I'm not sure the Cheney and the whole Iraq/Haliburton situation has been topped since then. Then there's ever member of Congress suddenly becoming a multimillionaire after they get into office.

The only norm Trump is breaking is that he doesn't care to sweep it under the rug
