President Trump on Thursday asserted that his administration is following through on his pledge to “drain the swamp.â€
“From the day I took the oath of office, I’ve been fighting to drain the swamp, and sometimes it may not look like it, but believe me we are draining the swamp,†Trump said during remarks at the White House about tax reform.
“And there are a lot of unhappy people,†he continued. “You can see that everyday. All you have to do is turn on the news. Every time you see me hit, you know that I’m draining the swamp. And people don’t like it.â€
Trump repeatedly vowed during the 2016 campaign and since taking office that he would "drain the swamp" and rid Washington, D.C., of lifelong political insiders and ethical quandaries.
