    Fox's Cavuto

    “Let me be clear, Mr. President. How can you drain the swamp if you’re the one that keeps muddying the waters?...
    I guess you’re too busy draining the swamp to ever stop and smell the stink you’re creating. That’s your doing. That’s your stink, Mr. President. That’s your swamp.”

    "I'm not here to provide lessons, just facts....All I'm saying is the president should be very careful calling anyone else being fake."

    Ouch. So, why now?

      Why now? Wouldn't it be nice if the pundits started siding with the interests of the American people and just spoke the truth. Across the board. Maybe this guy is the first.

      They are all swamp creatures. It's the ecosystem they voluntary participate in. Even those with the best intentions (and this is not implying Trump began with such) can,at best, coexist. Because that swamp cannot be drained. It's a toxic dump that must be abandoned. The area of thought contained in it quarantined. It's an environment where laws have been invented in order to circumvent the American ideal and bastardize it into a system designed to facilitate an orgy of corporate greed.

      Or, I  don't know. Maybe the guy is disgusted with the Stormy Daniels saga. Take your pick.

    Oh come on figure it out  , what is coming up soon ? ....5 ...4... 3 ...2 ...1 ....Mid term elections !   Who does Cavuto and so Fox usually back up in the elections ? Republicans ....Why do you think there is so much critiquing from both party's OF the very swamp Cavuto usually speaks and is actually a part of  of ?   Because Trump is the independent phenomena who's attempt at draining that swamp and which hasn't really even begun  yet.

    Democrats are out in space right now as to representative leadership , Republicans are sitting back and playing a apathetic "wait and see " game or in other words ,"I want to keep this cushy job " .  Once BOTH parties believed that their was a general attitude in DC where two parties established apathy supported themselves , their jobs and their positional wealth of power. The media supports the swamp .

    Yes, democrats too wanted , before it was a popular term , to "drain the swamp "too  ......too bad the left has moved away from that desire .

    The swamp CAN be drained but only if the American voter gets off his apathetic kiester , why do you think the swamp began , do you understand the natural progression of beaver dams and the swamps they become ?  A peaceful , clear stream running down through the mountains becomes a breeding ground for the beaver , building his dams to swamp the natural flow of the river or stream , backing up the water often into a swamp where disease festers ........

    Once in a while you have to throw a stick of dynamite into the brush lined dam to blow a hole in the swamped system , draining the swamp and once again the water runs clear as was intended by the creator of all natural  streams .    Get out and vote- get rid of the fat lazy swamp tending vermin ,  term limits ,  new faces , new ideas ................

    You know we are in a dire, desperate crumbling situation when fox channel starts to call Spanky Trump out on his never ending unprecedented and dangerous campaign of deceit and lies: How on Earth can the most incompetent mentally deranged elite sewer rat con man like Spanky possibly drain a swamp the size of the greatest bayou when he actually created it? impossible, and that's just another reason why he'll be gone soon::

    I disagree with Cavuto on Spanky's policies which are not actually good as Cavuto claims, they are absolute evil, like his and republicans atrocious corporate welfare tax cut scam recently passed which rewards companies that shipped trillions of our money to foreign countries, money that we'll never ever see which could have been taxed here in the United States as all income should be, and thereafter used to improve our infrastructure, enhance our healthcare system, build shelter for our homeless, many of which are military veterans and of course to enhance workers pay and rights:

    Insanity: Spanky, con man accomplice republican Paul Ryan who is resigning his position probably for fear of the Trump criminal investigation and the majority of republicans designed this abominable legislation to make corporate welfare tax cuts PERMANENT which equates to roughly 82% of the benefits, while the left over crumbs given to workers which will be eaten up by higher health insurance premiums and gas prices will EXPIRE soon:

    Appalling: Wall Street corporations which Spanky Trump adores, continue to reap billions from our consumers, then ship our money over seas to avoid paying taxes for the benefit of foreign entities" That's evil:

    To the more than apparent lack of intellectual depth on the right and left  left --What this is is an act of conspiratorial obstruction  from the left and pure obstruction from the right  ,  Trump's the middle America's attempt to take some not so small  portion of the government back from swampers to the people --but just keep obstructing and you'll have NO say whatsoever in government tomorrow .Today however there is one chance , the left wants bigger gov. the right want less and neither cares apparently  how much swampism rules the day.

      In your opinion, is there anything swampish about Trump?

        Actually, Spanky Trump has created and is presiding over a filthy sewer not a swamp: At least you could scare up a little food and boil some water to drink in a swamp, try that in Donny's sewer:

        And the charlatan Christian preacher who apparently no longer believes that multiple counts of adultery is an unforgivable sin against the Ten Commandments: That's sewer not swamp:

          Fortunately the Ten Commandments are no longer part and parcel of American law OR ethics.  Instead it has become part of the swamp.

        After all of this, who remains on your side except plutocrats, oligarchs and tyrants? Can't leave out those of little means and ability dumb enough to believe that they, through Trump, are going to make the rains fall on their behalf.
