You are oversimplifying. There are degrees of corruption. Just like there are degrees of crime: running a traffic light isn't the same as shooting someone. This is not to dismiss corruption or breaking laws, but oversimplifying is a tactic used by authoritarians to create confusion in people who don't want to think too hard abit things. Marcos and Aquino, Amin, Putin... Trump is more like Marcos, not massive slaughter but oligarchs aren't even pretending to hide in the shadows. I'm sure US's good guy Jimmy Carter had some corruption but is no where mear Marcos.
