Trump's corruption and naked greed is overt and out-in-the-open. He's even proud of it.

Clinton's happens in secret and is masked by insincerity, lies, etc.

I think there's a brain glitch at play here -- corruption in the style of Clinton feels more corrupt because it's secretive, even if the out-in-the-open corruption is just as bad or worse.

Only this time, it seems the Clintons were trumped...
