I have long thought about Trumps claims during the campaign trail where he said he was going to “Drain the Swamp” in Washington. I believe this ideology is why he got elected despite all his potential conflicts of interest. People saw Hillary as just another corrupt politician and hoped that Trump’s outsider status would benefit them.
From the outside, it has really looked like he has reneged on his word and filled his cabinet with Goldman Sac’s executives, corrupt politicians, and people whose sole mission in life is to take down the very thing he has put him in charge of.
But maybe it isn’t that he is a pathological liar who will say anything to get applause, maybe he isn’t as corrupt, soulless, and treacherous as he seems? Maybe he is, in fact, a plant to see how many corrupt people will show themselves.
So far he has exposed…
Mike Flynn
Paul Manafort
Carter Page
Jeff Sessions
Roger Stone
Jared Kushner
Devin Nunes
Here’s hoping he brings down more as this all gets figured out, including Mike Pence, Mitch McConnell, and Paul Ryan.
Ok, so probably not, he is probably doing everything they are saying he is. If you want up to date information on the investigation, follow @SethAbramson on Twitter
