Re: the bolded, I actually think that's great. Get them productive and fully integrated into society. That's what will actually decrease recidivism rates.

The truth is that no President will ever be able to drain the swamp. It is a permanent fixture of the United States government. That is something that Trump didn’t realize.

If you try to drain the swamp, the swamp water will simply move somewhere else and you’ll be right back to square one.

Outside of the ruling against him to make it easier to fire the bums, Trump added 4k employees. Look at the budget, he is growing govt in leaps and bounds.
Anyone trumpeting "Trump wants to downsize govt" in spite of such overwhelming evidence to the contrary is engaging in extreme partisan hackery.
Yes we know !!!
We have all heard it before !!!
Agree with the left or be demonized !!!
There is no better example of extreme partisan hackery !!!
