Since being elected
last month, Trump has been naming the dirtiest, swampiest monsters to head
his cabinet and Administration.
Bankers, donors,
politicians galore are lining up to turn the United States into a fascist
regime for the rich and powerful.
Yet, somehow, his
voters don’t believe it for a second. They’re still convinced he’s going to
drain the swamp, and anyone who says otherwise is just trying to tear him down.
Only New Gingrich, and
his all-knowing wisdom, inadvertently has exposed Trump for the fraud he really
is.
I’m told he now just disclaims that. He now says it was cute, but he doesn’t want to use it anymore … [He had] written what I thought was a very cute tweet about ‘the alligators are complaining,’ but somebody wrote back and said they were tired of hearing this stuff.
And just like that,
another Trump promise – and one of his biggest – goes down in flames because
the elite Republicans (which includes Gingrich) don’t want to hear it anymore.
So that makes Trump
either a liar or a turtle-on-a-fencepost. Or both.
Gingrich added that
“he’s in a different role now, and maybe he feels that as president, as the
next president of the United States, that he should be marginally more
dignified than talking about alligators in swamps.”
Not only is he being
“more dignified” than the alligators, he’s giving them government positions –
like the Treasury Department, the SEC, and even the Transportation Department.
And just like that,
Trump drops another thing people trusted him with. Get ready for four years of
betrayal, lies, and rolling over for the very establishment he vowed to fight.
