Given the number of political indictments of his administration - I would say that the Trump administration in a bid to avoid disappointing it's voters decided to bring the swamp to Washington - so there will be something to drain. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/20...elony-arrests-and-convictions-as-of-9-17-2018 If we are looking at the number of convictions per year - at 3.5 the Trump administration is well behind the Nixon administration, but well ahead of #3 (Reagan). Good news, if we include the foreign convictions of people associated with the administration, Trump's administration is closer to his goal of surpassing Nixon. Given that the previous administration (in 8 years) gave us 0 indicments, convictions or imprisonments - I can see why Trump had to bring so many crooks to have something to drain... So naive it's almost charming.
Personal opinion haven't really tried to fact check anything but he brought in a new swamp. Much of the old swamp is still there, and many of them have been scratching each other's back so long their's marks but they have 0 reasons to turn on each other as that would cause issues for all of them. It was easy for them to go after Trumps group of idiots because they didn't have as much or any dirt on them.
This is as good a call for term limits on everything (congress, senate, supreme court) as anything that can be said. But, equating Trump with draining the swamp when Shrek would not live in Trump's dwelling is hypocrisy.
Yeah, I never thought Trump was “the guy”, for it, but I guess for better or worse part of me heard “drain the swamp in washington”, and I thought well that doesnt seem so terrible... Not sure thats making sense. Lol
oh my gosh, you mean you haven't been straight up with me in the past? I am shocked. If you truly believe the guy has the countries best interest then you have been dupedinskied. People who lie on a daily basis don't have "our" best interest in mind. The guy has no clue about foreign diplomacy and seems to have a fascination with dictators and his current stonewalling and refusing to cooperate with various committees don;t have our best interest in mind. A president who offers massive tax cuts to the ultra wealthy and large corporations don't have out best interest in mind. Someone who constantly personally attacks, calls American citizens enemy of the people don;t have our best interest in mind. Should I go on? Now tell me what best interests he has in mind for me. Oh, and his draining the swamp bullshit was him filling up the swamp with his pay to play friends, aka as swamp rats. Betsy Devos? Linda McMahon? Sondland, the ambassador to the EU? and there are several others that are part of the pay to play in his administration.
Dude, I'm ultra-wealthy and I appreciate the fact that I can give excesses to whomever I want. I don't need the friggin government making those calls for me, thank-you-very-much.
It makes perfect sense. The man has mass market communication skills and clearly managed to appeal to enough people. There are still a lot more of us that could not enjoy the pretty pictures of the deodorant over the smell of rotting waste. Hopefully, in the upcoming elections more people will differentiate the pretty pictures from the stench.
Term limits would be nice, but especially for judges. No one should be appointed a lifetime position as at least with people in congress and the presidency they can be voted out. Trying to remove a lifetime judge is next to impossible. .
I have heard it being said that knowing that you have been naive, and repeating the same action hoping for a different outcome takes you out of the naive category.
So once again, you reveal your true colors that it's only about you and fuck anyone else. Thanks for the clarification Howard Hughes.
Impeachment is not a tool to protect people from their own mistakes, it's a tool to protect democracy from corruption.
Not at all certain what that means, but I'll tell ya what, I give to amazing causes. My point is, I want ME to give it....NOT the government. BTW, dude, in 2015 I was on unemployment in Bend, OR Nobody needs to tell me it's all about me. I simply found a way to get above the fray. I got my license as a realtor in TN and now sell commercial real estate. Thanks to our economy I'm doing very, very well. I'm not a special case. Me thinks most anyone could do what i do with the right amount of sincerity and work ethic.
