You can chant "drain the swamp" all you want but it won't change the fact that he needs to pass legislation to do so.

Trump meltdown sets off GOP alarms over 2018 midterm

http://www.politico.com/story/2017/0...p-alarm-238342

Quote:
CORONADO, Calif. — With the White House in meltdown mode, top Republican Party officials and operatives gathered at a posh oceanside resort here and contemplated a 2018 midterm election that will test them in unimaginable ways.

At the Republican National Committee’s spring meeting, strategists expressed alarm about a pair of upcoming special House elections and what they might portend for the battle for the lower chamber next year. One high-profile potential candidate outlined how he would distinguish himself from the embattled president.
Just a matter of time.

You are correct sir, who would have thought that even some RePugs are part of the swamp.



It may be some time until the MAD party regains control, and they may need a revolutionary war to help them.

In the last election if the only people allowed to vote were politicians and the media, Mrs Clinton would have won in a overwhelming landslide. I think this group will find that President Trump is a formidable opponent. Time will tell...

He beat a stacked deck, have to give him credit for that.

You seem to be assuming that's a bad thing.

Like the left wing sources you quote your word doesn't mean spit. You constantly say you are going to stop spewing crap about a subject then start right back up a page later. I can see why you found Hillary's dishonesty so appealing.

Keep thinking that.
Fact is, most people don't give a hoot about any of the crap you guys are crying about.

Chicken Littles. Nothing more.

Lying under oath to Congress must be a democrat party acceptable thing .... for many people, it means a person is no longer completely reliable about anything they say.

Every time a democrat tells a lie, a devil gets his horns.

The short period since this election has convinced me that I've been naive for 58 years. I now think it will be virtually impossible to clean up the mess in Washington democratically. It will require a violent revolution. I'm not sure what's going to trigger it, when it will occur, or whether the good guys or bad guys will win, My best guess is that when the establishment finally loses control of the paper monetary system and the economy gets really bad, the level of unemployment, hunger, crime, and disease will get so high, people are going to take up arms against politicians, media heads, Wall St and bank executives, central bankers and the super wealthy. If I'm alive to see it (and I suspect I might be), I won't be one of the people turning to violence, but I will not be cheering or working against them.
