Maybe we have to burn it down, then build the wall first. THEN we can drain the swamp.

I think he said he does not want to use the phrase "drain the swamp". Which now that he is the top of D.C. Not necessarily good to have it referred to as a swamp.

Does not mean he is not going to oursue some common sense reforms.

Kind of like fake news.

I read all six sentences of this "news" article. I'm not sure what you think we should take seriously, or be surprised by? Can you enlighten us please?

Yep, Newt is a totally unbiased source. I caught his interview live & a lot of what he was saying was said in humor. But he's never liked Trump & has never hid that fact. As for being played: The GOP won, across the board at every state & Federal level above & beyond Trump. And Trump will be the lawfully elected POTUS. You lost, deal with it.

if you read newt's quotes, that isn't actually what he said.

but yeah, they got played.

I think the quote from the thank you tour is more telling

quote:

We're going to drain the swamp... of corruption. Funny how that term caught on, isn't it? I told... I tell everyone-- I hated it. Somebody said, "drain the swamp." I said, "Oh, that's so hokey. That is so terrible. I said, "All right, I'll try it'." So, like a month ago, I said, "drain the swamp." Place went crazy. I said, "Whoa. What's this?" Then I said it again. Then I started saying it like I meant it, right? "

Trump is referring to him stopping use of that campaign phrase. He will still be draining the swamp." He has outlined his ethics reform plan for Washington and looks to implement it. Misleading title and embarrassing OP
