1) How much help did he get?

2) How long has the swamp held piwer?

Hell, Trump's the only guy to come along this century who has even tried to fight them.

I think you underestimate the depth of the morass that’s been building for over 100 years.

Trump never made more than a dent, but it’s more than anyone else had made in a long while. It is up to his successors to keep making more dents.

At this point the Captain America movie where they have the airplanes that target any threat to Hydra based on the AI predictive analytics feels like them telling us their evil scheme.

not much he had to fight rinos/GOPe and crazy left wing loons 1st term and this term.

trump is only a speed bump unless congress is purged and we start all over with 535 new reps AND start passing constitutional amendments.

immigration act of 65, banning commies and islam should be the first on the table.

Seems to me most people here have no clue what the SCOTUS can and cannot do and what exactly their role as the judicial branch of government really is.

Trump couldn't just end it with an EO. (But he shined a spotlight on it)

The SCOTUS can't just end it with a ruling. (But they reinforced how to change it)

Congress CAN begin the process of ending it by introducing a constitutional amendment and completing that process, but we all know they're not going to do that.

What part of activist judges blocking every step he has taken is his fault?

Trump is just step one. BUT, with weak spineless Republicans it will never happen. There will never be a step two.

Clearly a lot of the top level Republicans are compromised. There is no other explanation for the save act not getting through the house and senate.

In short, not much Trump can do without equal actions taken by the House and Senate and they are too cowardly spineless and compromised to do jack shite.

Credit where it is due, the democrat's platform is garbage but at least they can control their members better.

Here's the thing....there is only one way to "drain the swamp." You don't drain the swamp by firing people, or with favorable judicial rulings. Those things might help on the periphery, but to truly drain the swamp, you have to choke off the money supply. This is because the fraud and misallocation of taxpayer money is a feature not a bug.

Trump became just another ordinary, average politician by refusing to advocate for any fiscal restraint.

So basically Trump black-pilled America

Now we know the only way out is a revolution?

Hence why I said we needed a Washington or a Jackson

A POTUS does not have the power.

This

They've rebranded their entire party to accept communists under the guise of "democratic socialists". ...and most of the public is too dense to realize we're getting our asses eliminated.

This country is done.

You do realize the Federal Government is running the same amount of people right now as it did in 1966, right? Trump has already tossed a boatload with more to come with the ruling yesterday.

Not sure how anyone can drain it when people keep electing Ilhan Omar, Jeffries, Pelosi, etc... mayors like Brandon Johnson of Chicago, Karen Bass of LA, Katie Wilson of Seattle.

There are problems all over at city, state, and national positions. Unamerican. It's a herculean task for Trump or any president. Going to take voters to vote these people out.

he is fighting something that was built a long time ago. It will take time and so many people are brainwashed right now not realizing how trump is trying to save this country. With the media against him and all the wokeness its amazing what he has done so far. We need trump for another 10 fuking years to straighen out what the corrupt swamp has done
