Corrupt Politician	comment	Some politicians want to make the world a better place. They run for office and when they get elected stay up late trying to help their constituents and build a stronger community. This is not their trope. This politician sees the world through Jade-Colored Glasses. He thinks it's a Crapsack World, with Black-and-Gray Morality. He's gotten unqualified family members appointed to high-responsibility positions and his friends' companies get the juicy government contracts he doesn't keep to dole out to lovers and lobbyists. A constituent who comes to him for help had better be ready to hand over a juicy "campaign donation" in a Briefcase Full of Money (or an offer to "make a problem go away"). Some corrupt politicians just abuse and twist the system for their own ends. Nepotism may or may not be illegal, and steering contracts to your friends may just be the result of a small pool of available contractors, and of course a member of the committee for Big Oil is going to be acquainted with Big Oil leaders. On the other hand, some are fully criminal and allied with The Mafia or some other criminal organization. They use their insider status to steer police investigations away from their crimes and they have an Amoral Attorney to exploit or create loopholes or simply get rid of any legal process directed at them. In the worst-case scenario, a particularly powerful, competent, and ruthless Corrupt Politician will be a fully-fledged Diabolical Mastermind. A Corrupt Politician can be as minor as the mayor of a small town who runs everything for his own benefit. Or perhaps the Evil Chancellor, who would like nothing better than to usurp his boss. Or he could be President Evil, a full-blown super villain in charge of an entire nation. Taken to the extreme, he's an Evil Overlord. When you walk into a Chez Restaurant, you can expect to find the Corrupt Politician eating a costly dinner with his Amoral Attorney, a Corrupt Corporate Executive, his dirty Police Commissioner and The Don. He's probably on good terms with some evil aristocrats, princes, queens and even the right-wing organizations, as well. Unlike the rest of them, the Corrupt Politician had to go through an election. Or at least the appearance of an election. The Corrupt Politician will assure them all that the Corrupt Bureaucrat, whom he appointed and controls, will do what they want. Might hide his corrupt activities from the public, in which case he is both a Villain with Good Publicity and possibly a Devil in Plain Sight. If such a foe is presented as an enemy of the heroes in a storyline, a hero may have trusted him in the past and even voted for him in one or more elections, much to his regret later. Related to the Corrupt Politician is the Sleazy Politician, who isn't necessarily criminal, but still oozes distastefully low morals. See also the Amoral Attorney—in an American context, at least, these will frequently overlap, since many politicians are also lawyers by trade. Contrast Action Politician. noreallife No Real Life Examples, Please! - There are too many to bother trying to list even if this wasnâ€™t a contentious topic.

Corrupt Politician / int_1361afec	comment	In Jago, Sir Kenneth Smart is the minister responsible for the government's secret research into paranormal abilities (which he mostly views as a branch of weapons research; the only reason there isn't a psychic assassin training program is because of the stonewalling of one of his more principled subordinates). His research group has been aware of the villain's activities for years but has stuck to watching and not intervening in hopes of learning something that might have military applications. When the villain's activities end in a catastrophe with an enormous death toll, Sir Kenneth becomes a public hero by declaring that it will never happen again and using it as the excuse for a raft of strict law-and-order measures that he knows perfectly well have nothing to do with the actual cause of the disaster.

Corrupt Politician / int_1bdeba5a	comment	Lots of X-Men villains, most of them anti-mutant bigots: Senator Robert Kelly, often seen as a dark satire of Joseph McCarthy, is likely the most well-known. He was originally the mastermind behind the Mutant Control Act and Project: Wideawake, government programs aimed at creating the updated Sentinels to hunt down and kill mutants. He was a main antagonist in Days of Future Past, X-Men Noir, and the Alternate Universe setting House of M. (But in Age of Apocalypse, another Alternate Universe, he was a good guy, if a little naive.) He was also a recurring villain in the film and animated adaptations, though he experienced a level of Adaptational Heroism in the animated series from the 1990s. Graydon Creed, leader of several anti-mutant hate groups, including the Friends of Humanity, Purifiers, and Upstarts, was a candidate for President during Operation: Zero Tolerance, running on an anti-mutant platform until he was assassinated.

Corrupt Politician / int_247422c7	comment	Politics plays a major part in the Honor Harrington series, so of course this trope is in force. Haven's Legislaturalists, Manticore's & Grayson's Opposition parties, and the Solarian League's bureacrats are almost exclusively split between the sleazy and the corrupt. The series crowner is probably the Manticoran Progressive Party's leader Lady Elaine Descroix, who is so utterly ruthless and cynical that she makes her own corrupt Prime Minster blanch. We have to go to series reference materials to get a solid idea of what (if any) principles her party actually has, since she vocally disdains politicians who are led by them. She embezzles money and frames her sole semi-principled ally, she doctors diplomatic correspondence to hold on to domestic power and ends up provoking a war, and she turns out to be The Mole for a nation involved in slave trade. In a very mild example, Sonja Hemphill engages in corruption when she chooses the needs of the Star Kingdom over the integrity of the military judicial system. When faced with the Court Martial of Captain Pavel Young, the heir to North Hollow, two of the officers on the trial are bought and paid for by North Hollow, while three others agree that the Captain has committed an offense that carries the death penalty. Hemphill agrees with the latter, but she knows that if Young is executed, it'll be impossible to get a declaration of war through Parliament.note As one of the Kingdom's highest-ranking admirals, she knows full well that war is coming whether Manticore is ready or not. She votes no on the capital offense, while voting yes on the charges that will get Young dishonorably discharged.

This reaches the point where, during the Reaper War, they undermine Marshal T'Drak's war effort, since her more progressive tactics are winning her enough prestige to be a potential rival, regardless of the danger they're putting their own citizens in as a result. After the war's end, T'Drak exposes all of this, then takes the public outcry as a mandate to stage a Military Coup and remove them all from power. Torg, the Klingon governor of the Vantar system, takes advantage of the chaos of the Reaper War to make money by selling weapon and resources to the pirates roosting in the system. When this is uncovered during the post-war reconstruction, Mala and Kauri are sent to eliminate him for it.

Corrupt Politician / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: Mayor Quimby is a massively over-the-top example. In fact, the mayoral motto is Corruptus in Extremis. Senator Mendoza is from a Show Within a Show, the movie McBain, but he's pretty bad, being a drug kingpin who uses his connections as a cover for his operations. There is also Congressman Bob Arnold in "Mr. Lisa Goes to Washington". He takes a bribe to demolish the very forest that inspired Lisa's patriotic essay and was even willing to allow Mt. Rushmore to be fracked. When Quimby is unseated by Sideshow Bob in "Sideshow Bob Roberts" in a rigged election, Bob turns out to be even worse. Homer, of all people, became a clear example of this Trope in "Trash of the Titans", using underhanded tactics and Blatant Lies to win the election for City Sanitation Commissioner (unseating one of the few competent people in Springfield, to make it worse) and then causing a disaster that required the whole town to be moved. (Of course, you might partially blame everyone who was stupid enough to believe his "crazy promises", which is what the previous commissioner does). The worst example on the show would no-doubt be Russ Cargill, the Big Bad of The Simpsons Movie, an EPA official who becomes convinced Springfield is such a hellhole that he first has it sealed under a giant glass dome (that his company just happened to manufacture), then tries to blow the entire city to smithereens.

Ryo Aoki of Yakuza: Like a Dragon is the Governor of Tokyo who rose to power through creating the NPO "Bleach Japan" that protested organized crime and was considered one of the figures behind the police operation that took down the Tojo Clan. In practice, Bleach Japan is effectively a campaign to gentrify Japan that targets the lower class in an attempt to run out smaller criminal syndicates for Aoki's own criminal allies. Like Jingu above, he's a ruthless individual who will have anyone killed to secure his rise to power or simply out of paranoia, including his own father Masumi Arakawa and loyal minion Hajime Ogasawara.

Corrupt Politician / int_2982233c	comment	Persona 5 both plays this straight (or exaggerates it) and also inverts this. The straight example is Masayoshi Shido, a power-hungry politician who leads The Conspiracy that serves as the main antagonist of the second half of the game. He uses his connections to influence the masses so that he can become Prime Minister as well as to get away with any misdeeds, such as getting the protagonist put on probation when he stopped him from sexually assaulting a woman. For worse, he is the father of Goro Akechi, aka The Traitor, and basically one of the biggest reasons why Akechi is... the way he is. The inversion is Toranosuke Yoshida, an actually honest-to-God good politician striving to improve the lives of the people, even if his past mistake and rejection from the people based on that will continue to haunt him. He's one of Joker's Tarot Confidants, and if maxed out, gets re-elected to Diet to ensure his good policies will be implemented, and then helps Joker get out of his juvenile sentence quicker.

Corrupt Politician / int_2a8d8e6f	comment	Gotham, in keeping with its canonical roots, has yet to have a mayor who isn't corrupt or downright villainous: Aubrey James is rather openly in the pocket of the mob. While he's forcibly removed from office by Theo Galavan, following Galavan's own fall from power he tries to weasel his way back into power by having the city council appoint him back into office as an emergency measure, without any sort of election. Theo Galavan kidnaps Mayor James and has him tortured for fun, while having a group of criminals broken out of Arkham and sent on a terror spree, just so he can be a hero by publicly stopping them, all so he can then win an emergency election to replace the missing James (and having his opposing candidates assassinated to ensure he wins). And all of this is to put him in position to take over Wayne Enterprises and use its resources to reshape Gotham in his image. Plus, wanting to kill Bruce to carry out a centuries-old blood feud. Penguin tries to rig the election between him and James in his favor by bribing election officials (though admittedly, Riddler takes the money back, just to prove that Penguin can win without bribery), and once in office continues to simultaneously run his criminal empire, including having people killed. The new mayor and police commissioner in power at the start of Season 4 willingly cut a deal with Penguin, legalizing all crime committed by criminals who buy Penguin's permits, in order to cut back on violent crimes (as Penguin won't approve those and eliminates anyone who commits crimes without his permits)... and, it's implied, for a cut of the profits.

A mild example, but he nearly convicted an innocent man of murder to help secure his election. There's also Mayor Bob, friend to Castle who features prominently in the episode 'Dial M for Mayor.' There's ample evidence to suggest that he's embezzling funds and was involved in a murder, but he attests that he's being set up. Subverted in that he's right and the conspiracy that shot down his run for governor are the same guys involved in Beckett's mother's murder. "After the Storm" gives us William H.

Robyn confesses to May that one of her biggest fears if she wins the council seat is that she'll become this, being familiar with the stories of how someone fighting for justice enters the political arena, only to become no different than the other corrupt politicians. May shoots the idea down, even bringing up her former family and how they'd do any underhanded action to get ahead, by telling Robyn that she's nothing like them even at her worst. Joanna further throws off the notion by telling Robyn that she has the Happy Huntresses by her side to keep her stable if council politics start getting to her, making it clear that they'll do everything they can to avert this trope.

Corrupt Politician / int_7aaf9e41	comment	Batman: Every single politician in Gotham with the exception of District Attorney Harvey Dent and Police Commissioner Gordon. Justified because Gotham is a Wretched Hive: Marion Grange was not corrupt and tried to help Gotham, but she was underfunded and was assassinated before her term ended. One of the more notable examples is councilman Rupert Thorne, who was such a major antagonist in the late 1970s comics that he was invited to an Auction of Evil reserved for the most prominent Batman rogues. A common scenario in adaptations or Elseworld stories is for either Penguin or Two-Face to run for Mayor. In nearly all such stories, they fit the trope pretty well. In Nightwing's city BlÃ¼dhaven, after the official swearing-in ceremony, the Mayor has a second ceremony where they meet with the heads of the city's organised crime families and the Police Commissioner hands them a symbolic suitcase full of money. In Batman: Gordon of Gotham, Harcourt Greene wins a political election by rigging voting machines and having his own mother killed to get sympathy votes. Twenty years later, he tries to do something similar while running for President.

Corrupt Politician / int_7ac0e0b0	comment	I Was a Teenage Exocolonist: Lum has absolutely no knowledge on how to properly run a colony other than using force to sway people into supporting his militaristic vision for it. According to Rex, he was a "meathead military guy" who was assigned a desk job to keep him from causing trouble, and he only became the Governor because the Helio crew who were more fit for the job died when the ship passed through the wormhole. If approached about the topic, Seeq agrees that Lum needs to go and admits to considering taking his place themself. It also costs exactly 100 Kudos to get them to support someone else during a vote for a new Governor unless Eudicot is saved, in which she calls Seeq out for extorting money from a teenager in exchange for a vote. Sol's own internal narration points out that ambitions to be Governor and being easy to bribe isn't exactly the best combination of traits for a single person to have.

First is the House of Duras, whose members (at least those we see) have conspired with foreign powers to subvert their own government. Next is Chancellor Gowron, who might be a Reasonable Authority Figure if not for his habit of putting personal ambition over the good of the Empire. Through all of this, the High Council's primary duty appears to be covering their own asses whenever there's a scandal.

Jim is generally aware of his moral compass even when he is doing his best to ignore it, Sir Humphrey is a devoted servant of the status quo, and Bernard is young and naÃ¯ve. That said, the series to a large extent circles around the backroom deals and favor trading that keep the wheels of government turning. "Jobs For the Boys" circles around how retiring politicians and senior civil servants are given cushy, well-paid not-actually-jobs in various quangos (QUAsi-Non-Government-OrganisationS, funded but not controlled by the Government) and how said jobs are distributed. Similarly, "Doing the Honours" revolves around how the Honours list (essentially the official list of recommendations for people who deserve knighthoods and similar honors) has become a way to pay off people who either donate significant sums of money to the party in government or know where the skeletons are buried, without having to actually pay them.

The Earth Federation of the Universal Century timeline have caused many of the conflicts due to their actions. They exploited the Spacenoids, leading to Zeon Zum Daikun's desire to independence, which in turn got hijacked by the Zabis, leading to the One Year War of Mobile Suit Gundam. The creation of the Anti-Earth Union Group was caused by these same people turning away from the atrocities caused by the Titans in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam and they willingly allowed Dublin, Ireland be destroyed by Colony Drop in Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ. Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans: The Seven Stars of Gjallarhorn are effectively both politicians and military leaders, and several of them are unapologetically corrupt. Most notable is Rustal Elion, commander of Gjallarhorn's largest fleet, who firmly opposes any reforms to the corruption in the organization and has gone so far as attempting to assassinate world leaders and starting proxy wars in order to undermine his political rivals. Before him is Iznario Fareed, who went so far as misappropriating Gjallarhorn forces and having them barricade a city in order to ensure a Prime Minister election went in favor of his preferred candidate.

With the Decepticons rising, Proteus issues some pretty harsh plans, hoping to stop the lower classes from rebelling by having them lobotomized, and killing anyone in his way (and even before the uprising, disfiguring and reprogramming any enemy of the corruption). Ratbat seeks to profit from the whole uprising. Decimus isn't as corrupt, simply set in the ways of the rich profiting over the poor. Shockwave may be the only non-corrupt senator, as he tries to stop the deaths and killings. Ironically, we learn that Senator Momus was in league with the Decepticons because... He hung out with poor people, and invited them to parties. The Primes before Optimus recovered the true Matrix were even worse: Nominus was a pawn of the Senate, Sentinel used his position to push for social Darwinist ideals, and Zeta took about four seconds to go from "friendly and approachable guy" to "blinged-out robot Skeletor".

However, he lost, and Rigoletto soon wanted his money back. He blamed his loss on his wife and attacked her, prompting Wilson to kill him in self-defense.

She is ready to go through anything, including illegal measures, to get by, and turns out to be responsible for the botched sting that got Frank Castle's family killed.

She's also occasionally murderous, but much less so than other courtiers or her book counterpart, until she goes genocidal and blows up the Great Sept of Baelor with wildfire, killing hundreds, if not thousands.

Somewhat penny-ante as far as this trope goes (the greater evils here are Doctor Octopus and a MegaCorp named Biotechnix, which Miles is accepting bribes from), but one very memorable part of the story is when Spidey confronts him and threatens to leak the story to the press:

Corrupt Politician / int_bee47cbe	comment	Unsounded: A common unifying theme is that those with power over other people will never treat the common man as their equals — and those that mix their political power with their faith in the unknowable should never be trusted. Cresce pretends to be a communist republic, but it's deeply entrenched in familial nobility and religious administrative power. The only reason it has 'improved' for humans is because they threw the Inak into miserable serfdom, and almost none of the nobles (who are basically an unelected congress) give a damn until a revolution blows up in their face. Even the Queen, a Well-Intentioned Extremist trying to create a better legacy, is willing to sacrifice the lives of thousands and generally ignores the consequences of hiring mad scientists. Sharteshane is ruled by gangs and corporations, and is currently in the pocket of the Beadman Syndicate. His method of ruling is to distract the king with Bread and Circuses, having bought the king's rise to power in the first place, and then use legal policy and criminal skullduggery to maintain his monopoly on every product in the country. Then there's Alderode. Religion rules the countrynote The upside is that religious freedom is enforced, but barely., caste systems are biologically enforced to churn out disposable soldiers and workers, and the threat of a religious upheaval causes one politician to consider mass-genocide to 'even the scales'. Not helping matters, as one of the protagonists notes, is how the head of the council 'scratched his chin' in serious consideration of the genocide idea.

Note that by corrupting the church into preaching that all is well, he is still quite popular — at least until he starts martyring his few critics. The Gadianton robbers, in the book of Helaman, are able to place many of their members as judges, where they condemn the righteous, take bribes from the guilty, and generally lead the people around by the nose. The Jaredite king Riplakish basically enslaves his own people for forty years, with crippling taxes backed by prison sentences with hard labour (typically refining gold and otherwise making the king richer), until finally they rise up, kill him off, and exile his family.

Using his role as Attorney General and the guise of friendship, he becomes The Man Behind the Man to President Floyd Olson. From this position of power, he's able to essentially build his own empire within the federal government, gaining leverage over numerous politicians with a vast amount of blackmail, forging alliances with the mob, and assassinating anyone who gets in his way. He's eventually exposed and indicted for his crimes, and commits suicide rather than face the courts. Triumphant: A Davy Crockett Presidency has plenty of the usual examples of 19th century American political corruption, but there's an exceptional case in Daniel Sickles, who stages an Assassination Attempt on himself so that the sympathy will help him win the 1888 presidential election. Once in office, he then allows corruption to ran rampant so long as he can personally profit from it, and rigs numerous state-level elections so that he can pack key offices with his allies. And when he loses the 1892 election to Labor Party candidate Walter Earp (the alternate version of Wyatt Earp), he declares the election invalid and uses his allies in the military to try and either arrest or kill Earp and the rest of the Labor leadership, though he ultimately fails and is executed for treason.

This is because Bothans have a very ruthless, predatory attitude towards politics, and they see any politician who isn't doing anything in his power and making whatever shady deals he needs to in order to cement his office and get rid of the opposition isn't doing his job right. This is particularly notable in The Thrawn Trilogy, when Bothan leader Borsk Fey'lya does everything he can to ruin Admiral Ackbar and take over his position even when it's detrimental to the New Republic war effort. Thrawn himself notes that he never tried subverting Fey'lya, since he was helping the Empire so well as he was that Thrawn just didn't need to.

Corrupt Politician / int_e89f120b	comment	The Earth Federation of the Universal Century timeline have caused many of the conflicts due to their actions. They exploited the Spacenoids, leading to Zeon Zum Daikun's desire to independence, which in turn got hijacked by the Zabis, leading to the One Year War of Mobile Suit Gundam. The creation of the Anti-Earth Union Group was caused by these same people turning away from the atrocities caused by the Titans in Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam and they willingly allowed Dublin, Ireland be destroyed by Colony Drop in Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ.

Aubrey, in all innocence, tells his father about a stock tip he got.note For saving a man's life. Aubrey asked his father to keep it a secret, just as the stranger did. The good General then tells everyone he knows. End result: Aubrey is convicted of the early nineteenth century version of insider trading, spends a day in the stocks, and loses his commission. Nice job, dad.

Corrupt Politician / int_ee221a4e	comment	The Transformers (Marvel), specifically the Headmasters miniseries, features Lord Zarak of the Nebulan Council of Peers. Whereas his political rival, Galen, seeks to open talks with the newly-arrived Autobot colonists looking to escape their Forever War, Zarak seeks to undermine Galen's position on the Council by manipulating events to paint the Autobots as the invaders he perceives them to be. When he can't turn public opinion fast enough, even after hiring anti-Autobot protestors, he turns to inviting the Decepticons to Nebulos just to get rid of the Autobots. Zarak even goes so far as to become Scorponok's Headmaster partner just to counter Galen's bonding with Fortress Maximus. To say it doesn't go well is an Understatement. When he finally realizes what he's done, Zarak convinces Galen to take the Autobots to Earth, while Zarak will take the Decepticons to pursue. This effectively exiles them from their homeworld for the rest of their lives, but ensures that Nebulos will have the chance to recover.

Using electoral fraud to gain a massive majority in the government, they then ram through legislation to allow for increased mining and processing of blue ectoplasm, despite how dangerous it is (both to mine and as a power source) simply because they can profit from it. And their reaction to the resulting public outcry is a military crackdown which triggers a civil war. President Fulton, introduced in the seventh edition's Story Arc. At first, he's just another Trumplica, but at the climax, he sells out to PURITY, partially out of Fantastic Racism but mostly just so he can increase his own power base.

This was obviously done as part of his run for the Mayor on the platform of regulation of Powered individuals. At the end of the game, he hints that he knew all about the Prodigal and did nothing while she worked hard to plan the city's destruction. He also openly threatens you and implies that there was more to your parents' imprisonment than you thought. Victon's corruption is even more evident in the sequel, where he openly allies himself with an anti-Powered group called the Meek and even has them orchestrate a potentially deadly incident on the day of the Presidential Election in order to raise support for his campaign.

The first on-screen case is the incredibly Stupid Evil Lee Hang-gu who immediately files ridiculous claims, such as "loss of rented equipment" and "breach of contract" against Choi Hyungsung and family the instant he gets word that the main character died in action, and kicks the dog a bit more by trying to strong-arm Choi's family into giving up their estate, even flat-out evicting them from the family home, and billing them for all the living expenses Choi provided. When Choi asks him for an apology, Lee Hang-gu goes apoplectic, thinking he's being disrespected, because his yes-men keep telling him he did nothing wrong.

This effectively exiles them from their homeworld for the rest of their lives, but ensures that Nebulos will have the chance to recover. The Transformers (IDW) comics feature a diverse corrupt Senate. With the Decepticons rising, Proteus issues some pretty harsh plans, hoping to stop the lower classes from rebelling by having them lobotomized, and killing anyone in his way (and even before the uprising, disfiguring and reprogramming any enemy of the corruption). Ratbat seeks to profit from the whole uprising. Decimus isn't as corrupt, simply set in the ways of the rich profiting over the poor. Shockwave may be the only non-corrupt senator, as he tries to stop the deaths and killings. Ironically, we learn that Senator Momus was in league with the Decepticons because... He hung out with poor people, and invited them to parties. The Primes before Optimus recovered the true Matrix were even worse: Nominus was a pawn of the Senate, Sentinel used his position to push for social Darwinist ideals, and Zeta took about four seconds to go from "friendly and approachable guy" to "blinged-out robot Skeletor".

Using his role as Attorney General and the guise of friendship, he becomes The Man Behind the Man to President Floyd Olson. From this position of power, he's able to essentially build his own empire within the federal government, gaining leverage over numerous politicians with a vast amount of blackmail, forging alliances with the mob, and assassinating anyone who gets in his way. He's eventually exposed and indicted for his crimes, and commits suicide rather than face the courts.
