I know that after you leave office as POTUS it is some sort of unwritten rule that you withdraw from politics.
Why did Trump not withdraw?
Also why isn’t he a senator or congressman during Biden’s term?

The example was of the sort of corruption that affects politics everywhere, from a small country, not known for a lack of corruption. The example was also quite old. Predating trumps run at president.
Regardless, it was an example of left winged polititians doing exactly what left winged polititians are not supposed to do.
Doesn’t matter of you’re left or right winged around here, they’re all the same, greedy and have no shame for what they did.
No-one ever said that left wing politicians are perfect. They are far from it.
The issue is 2-fold. You’ve not shown an example of what was originally discussed (blatant breaking of tradition , with no justification other than “because we can”). It is more normal corruption that creeps into all political systems.
The second is the scale. It’s akin to comparing a school shooting, with dozens of fatalities, to a playground fistfight. Both are bad, but the scale is vastly different. Saying they should both be punished equally would be blatantly absurd.
That’s exactly what I’ve shown. He went on to be a prime minister after being convicted and then abolished by the president, because… well, he can.
Regarding the last paragraph, there are other examples regarding the same polititian (cover ups of a few unexplained murders while he was in office) which is the smoking gun you’re looking for. In the left’s defence, the right did things like this as well.
My standpoint is both sides are, excuse my French, dogshit. Everyone is looking in their best selfinterest, nothing more.
