Here is one exmaple for you:
Xi Jinping's power corruption and US president salary
Our Chinese like to say ``bu pa bu shi huo, jiu pa huo bi huo". In Mao's words, Facts Beat Eloquence. Last Friday, I talked about Xi Jinping's corruption and US president salary.
Here are more details (Gmailwang, you asked me about the data and please check them).
In 1990s, there was a big discussion about doubling the president's salary when Clinton was in the White House. At that time, the president salary is about 200k. After a long debate, people reached an agreement to double the salary for the US president. That is why the salary of Trump is about 400k nowadays, roughly two times of a good pay for a full professor at a good University.
It was made very clear that the raise of president salary will start after Clinton steps down. So Gorge Bush junior was the first one to get double salary of Bill Clinton in 2001. More details can be found in

So no one has accused that Clinton is corrupt. As for the presidency limit of two terms, both Clinton and Obama claimed that they can win a third term if no limit. But they had to go home when they were about 50s.
In March 2018, Xi Jinping removed two term limit of the Chinese presidency. If Xi Jinping made it clear that he will step down in 2023 and the removal will be only valid after he goes home, he is not corrupt. The problem is that everyone knows that Xi changed the constitution for himself. So Xi Jinping committed power corruption.
A real and terrible fact is that Xi Jinping is the No. 1 corrupt person all over the world although his “big feat” is anti-corruption.
