'DRAIN THE SWAMP'
by Lee S Gliddon Jr
President Trump was voted into Office due to the many campaign promises he voiced. Among those promises was, "Drain the Swamp."
To date President Trump has fulfilled many of the promises made. Through his efforts ISIS is one the run. Illegal border crossings of our southern border have substantially decreased. The stock market has experienced a marked increase, unemployment has decreased, and jobs have begun to increase. Salaries are on the increase.
The threats made by North Korea have been muted.
Many of the economy killing regulations put in place by ex-President Obama have been nullified as well as the outlandish rules set forth by our EPA.
President Trumps promises to 'Repeal Obamacare' and to 'Reform Americas Tax Code,' have gone by the wayside due to the failures of Congress! These failures will undoubtedly continue so long as one of President Trump's main promises goes unfulfilled. That promise was to "Drain the Swamp."
It is now time for the voters who support President Trump to realize that he cannot fulfill this promise alone. He cannot fire the errant Senators and Congressmen and women that oppose any thought of doing the job for, 'We The People,' that put them into office with our votes.
It is now time to realize that to assist President Trump, we must do the firing for him!
The House of Representatives is up for election in 2018. A number of Senators will also be up for election in 2018.
In 2018 we must see to it that all elected men and women that have been in office for more than (House of Representatives) 4 Terms (8 years), and (Senate) 2 Terms (12 years) are replaced. The men and women who are voted to office, either Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, must have one thought in mind, 'We the People,' are their bosses, and it is we that must represent. They can not gain election with the thought in mind, I am going to make a bunch of money.' Those days are over if we SEE TO IT!
Congress cannot be trusted to impose term limits on themselves. Congress will never cease to allow Lobbyists to control their votes so long as they are allowed to 'fatten' their purses with 'Campaign Contributions.'
President Trump is doing one heck of a job, but now it is time for us to do ours! We cannot sit around and complain and expect this job to be done for us. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!
If anyone has any ideas that would enhance the implementation of 'Draining the Swamp,' that would assist President Trump in his efforts to do so, now is the time to speak up!

Terry Payne comments: Folks:
ReplyDeleteOne way to attack do our nothing Congress (i.e., GOP has majority but they are not in power due to corruption of McCain etc. & other RINOs) is to recommend to President Trump that when the swamp dwellers return from their “recess” on taxpayer dime that Trump invokes an executive action mandating Congress share the same healthcare plan as the American people. Give their members some “skin in the game.”
Several weeks ago, establishment GOP politicians in Congress voted to keep Obamacare (ACA) – the disaster that is negatively impacting the lives of millions of Americans. This failure of GOP to keep their promise to the American people and President Trump shows the 7.5 years of numerous GOP votes to “repeal and replace” the ACA was a shameful scam designed to raise reelection funds and massage donors. No plan to end the ACA was actually designed or submitted to a cost analysis.
Terry Payne further comments: We know:
ReplyDeleteCongress is fully EXEMPT from Obamacare and the same limited healthcare choices enforced on the American people thanks to OPM and Obama loopholes created for Congress and the insurance companies. “Congress, through fraud, is violating Obamacare to get taxpayers to pay for its health insurance” using loopholes not available to the general public. “If the Trump administration required Congress to follow the law, taxpayers would be saving money, pure and simple. We hope the Trump administration will end this clear violation of law by Congress.”
That's why I'm asking you to join me by adding your name to my letter to President Trump urging him to mandate Congress have the same healthcare as the American people. No exemptions, no exceptions – period. White House e-mail- https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/

Suzanne comments: Yes, We must indeed help Drain the Swamp. However, we must also demand that our Organic Constitution must be restored. The criminal actions during the past of more than 100 years must be repaired and unfortunately all of these elected officials who have been working supposedly for the people have not been working FOR THE PEOPLE AND ALL MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE.....PRESIDENT TRUMP ALONG WITH THE CONGRESS MUST TAKE ACTIONS THAT WILL REPAIR AND RESTORE AND RENEW OUR ORGANIC CONSTITUTION WHICH IS TRULY THE CONSTITUTION OF THE PEOPLE, BY THE PEOPLE AND FOR THE PEOPLE.

"A constitution defines and limits the powers of the government it creates. It therefore follows, as a natural and also a logical result, that the governmental exercise of any power not authorized by the constitution is an assumed power, and therefore illegal."
--Thomas Paine, Constitutions, Governments, and Charters, 1805
"Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
Patrick Henry, 1775
