24. "Exceptionally dirty" does imply comparison, but not with anything in particular.

There has to be something which is not "exceptionally dirty" somewhere for it to make sense. Of course if you go too far with everything being "exceptionally dirty" than you wind up backwards, and the proper thing would be to note that one or a few things are "exceptionally clean". So, from that, you can infer correctly that I consider that the US political system is dirtier than most. But this is pounding nails with a sledgehammer.

I suspect you are far more interested in analyzing this subject than I am, so I will leave you to it.
