Can I say “ corruptive government officials have been dealt with “ to mean they were fired or dismissed?

Corrupt, not corruptive 😁😉 And yes, ‘they’ve been dealt with’ means they’ve probably been fired.

Try this in your sentence instead of "corruptive". "the corrupt". Corruuptive is an adjective but rarely used. Corrupt is used 99.99%.
