But let’s not discount Bush and cheney during that presidency…
Of course not. They were corrupt af.
I would say the big difference between Bush/Cheney and Obama/Biden is that the Bush family was already in the high eight-figures when he ran for Texas Governor. Cheney was already a CEO and married into the Coors dynasty. Meanwhile, the Obamas had a million-and-change in retirement savings when he took office, only to balloon it 70x.
Obama was promoted to the aristocracy. Cheney clawed his way up through Wyoming state politics. Bush was born there.
