I don't think much has changed besides optics. Politicians did evil things and most Americans support those evil things. But it's acceptable to do those things as long as you hide it behind some fancy political speech or wave a pride flag every year for a few days.
What throws people off about Trump is he's more transparent in the grift and what he's doing. He isn't hiding this shit behind dogwhistles and intermediaries. I think that's why it's been so difficult for Democrats to counter him. They treat him as some aberration that will go away when he's really just a run-of-the-mill conservative with some populist ideas who doesn't care about the optics.
