CMV: If you're going to talk about & criticize Trump's corruption, you *must* do the same for Biden's. If not, you're being hypocritical and undermining the integrity of the vote.

I think we can all agree that corruption is the *biggest* issue facing the country right now (along with climate change and police reform). But in order to address that, we can't just talk about one side. If you're going to talk about a politician's corruption, you *must* do it for both. This includes the presidents. <br><br>Trump is at the centerpiece of the Republican Party, and Biden is at the centerpiece of the Democratic Party. If you're going to attack Trump's corruption, you *must* do the same for Biden's if you're going to claim you have any shred of integrity. The same goes for Trump supporters. <br>If you're going to talk about one president, you *must* talk about the other. If not, you're not just being hypocritical; you're also undermining the integrity of the vote. You're essentially saying that one form of corruption is okay, which isn't. <br><br>If we're going to reform the country and take on corruption, we need to talk about *all* corruption, regardless of where it lies. <br><br>Note: I'm obviously talking about *real* corruption and not the fake stuff (Biden's a pedophile, Trump can walk on water, etc).<br>Also, please drop any "what aboutisms" you may have in the comments.
