    All you have to do is look at current news. Hillary and Bill getting money from Russia for their "foundation". Obama admin spying on Trump. Corrupt agencies. Corrupt Obama admin. Lies and spin galore.

    Trump's definition of "The Swamp":

    The Constitution, Historical precedent and Ethics.

    The Democratic Party's definition of the swamp is "home."

    Good thing you folks decided to drain the swamp and replace it with a swamp! With the same water you just drained even. Meaning you didn't drain the swamp at all, you built a water fountain. Because a water fountain just recycles the same water over and over again, which is exactly what Trump has done.

    What you guys did is akin to the police fighting bank robbers by robbing banks themselves. Stupid stupid stupid.

    And Trump has turned that swamp into a Corporate Everglades, some in there swimming are Russian Fish.

    Your point is?

    Trump hiring family members like a Venezuelan Despot.
    Trump family spending millions in taxpayer money cause his kid is too delicate to move to DC school like the Obama's kids.
    Trump's "secret" plan to destroy ISIS so secret even he can't implement them.
    Trump's "bait and switch" on who will pay for the wall.
    Trump's "bait and switch" on the TrumpCare bill that died in the Republican Swamp.

    Plenty of crap coming from both sides.

    And there in lies the rub.

    Your crap is worse than my crap. I'll crap on your crap, while you crap on mine and we'll see who's crap will win. Only problem is that everyone thinks their crap smells better so everybody is crapping on everyone else and nobody is actually listening.

    You said it - but 90% is from your side.
    Trump hiring his family is completely the fault of the Democrats. I would criticize him for it but what do you expect? He's the first president I ever heard of who walks into the White House filled with staffers who are so egregiously and shamefully disloyal. He needs his Cabinet approved - stymie. He needs people he can trust around him - stymie. He is doing an absolutely amazing job getting things accomplished and it's even more outstanding given the total and continual distractions, lies, and plots against him.

    Don't forget the MSM who stymie him every step of the way. All I can say is thank god the Clinton woman didn't win or we'd be at war with Russia by now.

    Honestly - you're going to try and tell me that poor, little Mr. Trump is the FIRST President who has had to deal with bureaucrats appointed by previous administrations? All but one of his Cabinet was approved over the last two months (Agriculture is being held up by his own party).
    So you can play that victim card, but the majority of Trump distractions have been caused by his own Twitter Feed.
    As for hiring his own family ... ? How can that be a decision "forced" on Trump and how can it not be considered nepotism?

    Your 'poor, little Mr. Trump' :roll: is unlike any President in your history - forthright, non-establishment, patriotic, charismatic, diligent, and fearless. I don't know what your agenda is, but you've certainly got one!

    Trump is the quintessential politician - a "bait and switch" style bull-sh*ter. He's spending money on himself and family like a Venezuelan Despot, appointing family members to official posts, his approval rating sucks like every politician in Congress. He's nothing special. Just a politician promising things he can't deliver and blaming everyone and everything else for failure.

    All Presidents need to be questioned - and certainly NOT put on a pedestal as you have just done. It's simply not healthy.

    Stop ranting and post something substantial. You say you're on record as being anti Trump and anti Clinton, so why not tell us who you think should be POTUS right now?

    Trump IS the President - who could have been doesn't matter. It's his actions that will help shape our future, and so far it's been Drama Queen time.
    I would have preferred someone with much less baggage - Kasiich or Jim Webb - than Trump or Clinton. With Trump or Clinton it would be all about them, and
    the needs of the country play second fiddle - and that is what has happened. Trump was unable to build a coalition to fix healthcare and too undisciplined to take the time needed. If he does the same with the upcoming spending bills, we could be in real trouble.

    So he went from someone who should not have won because he wasn't an experienced politician...to the quintessential politician? Which one is it, you guys cant have it both ways. ha ha Oh, he is so good, that he figured this out in short order?

    Do you know that the Clinton Foundation is a PUBLIC OPERATIONAL CHARITY?

    Do you know what that means?

    There will be no shortage of swampland with the rising sea levels, but transferring a portion of Washington's to Mar-a-Lago was a waste of time.

    Trump has created his own swamp. We need to get his adult children out of government.

    Trump should be President because 28% of the American public voted for him which was of course less than the actual majority of people who voted but that is how the system works.

    His adult children appear to be more adult than he is.
