What definition of "corrupt" are you using that would make every single winning politician "blatantly corrupt?"

A politician that is not corrupt is one who only ever accepted money from people who were 100% transparent about who they are and which policy changes they wanted that politician to try for.

So you are saying that if a politician accepts a campaign contribution without knowing where it came from, that makes them corrupt?
