Yahoo article: Trump is making the Clintons look clean

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/trump-making-clintons-look-clean-193314744.html

Donald Trump won the presidency in 2016 in part because voters perceived his opponent, Hillary Clinton, to be a dishonest, self-dealing phony.

Trump has now pulled off the improbable: He makes Hillary Clinton and her husband Bill look like ethical exemplars, compared with the corruption endemic in Trump’s administration.
Trump’s knifing of American law-enforcement agencies, while on a podium at the Helsinki “summit” with American enemy Vladimir Putin, visibly raised the possibility that Trump might sell out his own country to appease a ruthless dictator who at this moment is working to manipulate the upcoming U.S. elections. Trump is now going even further to aid Russian attacks against the United States, by saying Russia is no longer targeting U.S. elections. Intelligence officials contradict Trump and say Russia is still at it. The president of the United States is defending a foreign government that’s attacking the United States. Right now.

There were far more indictments and convictions in the Reagan and Bush 43 administrations than in the Clinton administration (IIRC 1 conviction). The MSM is still peddling the RW meme that the Clintons were corrupt. Bill was probably a philanderer, and maybe still is, but he wasn't a crook.
