Was Corruption The Biggest Issue In The US Election?

I saw last week that one of the biggest factors contributing to the enormous blue tsunami that set new history for US elections was people being fed up with government corruption. This has always been an issue to some extent, but corruption of the past versus corruption under Trump was like a wasp nest on the side of the house compared to a killer-hornet plague terrorizing the whole country (or continent, or globe). There is no comparison in US history that comes close to the corruption we’ve seen under the Trump administration.

My assumption was that inflation — specifically coming from Trump’s war on Iran and Trump’s widespread tariffs — and a poor economy were the top reasons for the blue tsunami. However, I’ve since seen more surveys showing that corruption was either the biggest or second biggest factor in the strong swing to the left in the recent midterm elections.

I can say that corruption is a huge issue for me. The USA’s slide into a completely corrupt, oligarchic, anti-democratic, authoritarian society was a top, top issue for me. I was concerned we had gotten to a point of no return. ) However, I didn’t think these concerns extended far enough. I expect most on the right never even see information on this stuff, and that most people “in the middle” don’t either. The results of the election and polling on this topic indicate that some of it really does break through, though. In any case, for those who have seen a lot of stuff on this topic and even more so for those who have not, below are just some of the seemingly endless, egregious examples of corruption that have come out regarding Donald Trump and his family (just going back to the beginning of April 2026).
