Whether you believe in conspiracy theories or not, it's obvious that Trump's #1 objective as POTUS is to battle the Deep State and basically drain the swamp. I think he definitely has a hit list of people he thinks are working for the DS and they will soon lose their jobs and both republicans and democrats will get the ax. He wants to clean house and get rid of these vermin. Sit back and watch, it's about to happen.


And then magically a few days after the 30 day mark, Nancy and Chuck will cave in and give him the necessary funding to build the wall.
More proof no one knows what Trump will do, which is his style. He doesn't show his hand. A purposeful distraction. He's done that from day one. A very odd style for politics that he brought with him from his executive days. Don't let them know what you're thinking. lol

Trump "draining the swamp". Based on his administration so far, that is a hilarious thought!

Do you really believe Trump wouldn't get rid of some democrat bureaucrats who are part the resistance and undermine his agenda ?

Right out of the democrats play book again.
Down play, deny, and lie. Pick one or go for the trifecta.

Her lies are getting easier and easier to prove.

She really needs to resign !!!
She is becoming a total embarrassment to congress which has a low enough rating as it is.

If lies by a political leader resulted in near-term resignation then Pelosi would already be President.

Why don't you ask Gop Rep Zeldin, Trump, Mnuchin and Lindsey Graham, all of whom have or will be taking foreign trips while the government is shutdown?

Nope. Pelosi did not suborn perjury or obstruct justice. She's not the one people think should resign.

You may not like his decisions but he is making them and on the job. Just don't send that lose screw AOC to look for him. Sitting on her hands she couldn't find her own butt.
