I've been there many times and all I can say is it is a third world country within a country. The people there are their own worst enemy.

The whole idea of "drain the swamp" has been a ridiculous thing for awhile.

Drain the Swamp can mean anything.

For us (Democrats/Liberals) it means to end corruption, corporate malfeasance in lobbying, the revolving door of politicians leaving office and returning to Washington to lobby. Waste and Corruption.

To right wingers it apparently means, doing things to piss off liberals. That is about the whole of many Trump supporters' ideology. Piss of liberals. He can hire the most corrupt, incompetent, and treasonous people and they won't care, as long as it pisses off liberals.

by mom and dad? Maybe they should look at themselves instead of liberals. They live in the places that have the shitty, one or two company economies, they live in the places that are falling behind during good times and bad times.
