If Trump's base had any brains at all, they'd realise that Trump and a large number of his aides ARE the swamp that they hate so much..

No. This is completely wrong.

The "swamp" that Trump supporters claim to hate so much does not refer to slimy deals and money laundering. When they refer to "drain the swamp" they are talking about

1) Democrats, and
2) Especially black democrats

They think Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer are the "swamp" but not Duncan Hunter or Chris Collins. Hillary and the Clinton Foundation are corrupt and Obama is the Liar-in-Chief.

That Trump paid hush money to cover an affair and lies multiple times every day is merely a witch hunt.

That is what they are calling the "swamp." Anything Democrat is swampy. Nothing Republican is. It has nothing to do with actual slime.

Trump: It is great that Jeff Sessions is keeping politics out of the Justice Department. Now, go after (my political enemies and/or) "other side"

And as several people have pointed out: those texts now make it almost impossible for the justice department to secure convictions against any of those people, if they wanted to.

In other words, Trump just gave his enemies pardons. Stable Genius just can't stop himself from shoveling manure.
 
Last night Dan Rather summed it up beautifully: When they make a movie about the Trump Adminsistrtion there is only one choice for a director...Martin Scorsese.

Fox New host Neil Cavuto lays in to Trump

I don't watch Fox so I don't know the personalities at all. (Some I know by reputation... Hannity, Pirro, etc.)

Is Cavuto one of the more... honest/rational/etc. ones on Fox? (Best of a bad lot as it were.) Or is this particular clip completely out of character for him?

Gotta wonder what's going on...
- Is Cavuto just having an honest streak and going against the Fox mentality
- Do Fox executives think there may be financial problems down the road if they continue to be a Trump propaganda outlet and thus want at least some non-Trumpian material on their networ
 
What is interesting is how the Trump Supporters posted some of the most disgusting crap I have ever seen on the Interent about McCain in support of Dear Leader.

trump Tweets a three parter!

"I have asked Secretary of State Mike Pompeo not to go to North Korea, at this time, because I feel we are not making sufficient progress with respect to the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula..."

"...Additionally, because of our much tougher Trading stance with China, I do not believe they are helping with the process of denuclearization as they once were (despite the UN Sanctions which are in place)..."

"...Secretary Pompeo looks forward to going to North Korea in the near future, most likely after our Trading relationship with China is resolved. In the meantime I would like to send my warmest regards and respect to Chairman Kim. I look forward to seeing him soon!"

I wonder how many Trump supporters thought that he was actually accomplishing something in North Korea, and will any of them realize that Trump was lying to them about North Korea?

So there you have it... for all of Trump's claims of being a negotiator, and how America is now respected, what we now see is this:

When you dump on allies and trading partners, they are less likely to support you.

I wonder if Trump has learned that lesson when it comes to other geopolitical alliances (like NATO).

Better hurry up... less than half a year to get the Nobel peace prize nomination in!

This bears repeating. Especially since it was posted after the latest news about McCain.
