    No, it got significantly worse for two reasons:

    Trump showed that operating outside morals or regulations had no consequences, political or financial.

    A kleptrocrat is now in the highest office, instead of just pulling strings.

      I agree with the first point but Rishi definitely isn’t the first kleptrocrat in the job (he might be the richest, but not the first), we have a glorious (/s) history of being ruled over by the rich and privileged (not only in parliament, but the rest of government and of course the royals).
