#14  Make no mistake. Half of Washington considered the USSR to be a "partner" they could work with or even survive being taken over by.

Happily, that cadre in DC today has partners like the alphabet people and the muzz. It's not going to play out well for them.

#13  Sam Donaldson said official Washington made the mistake of "believing Reagan was a likable moax." By the time they found out they had underestimated him the USSR was on the verge of falling.

#12  During his time in office, LBJ said of the Vietnam War: "I'm like a hitchhiker caught in a Texas hailstorm. You can't run. You can't hide. And you can't make it stop."

That's the swamp. It will not be drained. All you can do is detour around it and fence it off as useless land.

#11  I believe Trump is a decent man. The swamp is no place for a decent man.

#8  M. Murcek, I'd always assumed opportunists took the jobs thinking they could manipulate Trump. When they found out he wasn't the easily tricked dolt they'd thought he was they became bitter and backstabbed hoping to enjoy the love of the swamp again.

#6  "What they do?
They smile in your face
All the time, they want to take your place
The back stabbers (Back stabbers)

They smile in your face
All the time, they want to take your place
The back stabbers (Back stabbers)".
The O'Jays.

#5  I am still skeptical about anyone fast off the mark to explain why Trump's bad personnel choices are not his fault.
