The swamp is not a person, it is the corrupt 'mafia' running the CIA, DOJ, FBI, State Department, Senate, House, etc. It comprises both republicans and democrats.
There is no 'mafia' running any of those departments now except possibly the House (and you might have added the Supreme Court) because Biden is a decent man who appoints qualified people with clean records. The odd corrupt person might be hired anyway, or someone turn corrupt once seated, but these people are not working together, and if discovered would be dealt with.
But when Trump was president, he did corrupt those agencies as best he could to serve his needs including even the post office. That was by design. His people were chosen because they were already corrupt. As a result of being selected for their corruption, they were present in much greater number, and they knew about one another and coordinated activities.
They weren't all in government. Bannon, Manafort, Stone, and Giuliani come to mind quickly. The number of people connected to Trump who have been indicted, convicted, and or incarcerated is staggering.
Trump corrupted the Supreme Court as well.
The current House wasn't his doing directly, but that ****-show is a MAGA production via Trump that is still his puppet for launching investigations (Biden impeachment) and scuttling legislation (bipartisan border bill).
That's what organized corruption looks like compared to the odd bad apple.
Yes, one can apply the term swamp to any morass he doesn't like such as red tape and bureaucracy, but that Trumpian kind of organized crime in and around government most deserves the term swamp - more than the inertia and inefficiency inherent in big government.
What everyone can agree on is that it would be nice if the next president can make America great again.
That term never got the scrutiny it deserves. Some might say that America was never great despite its size, wealth, and might because of it moral failings, and many more would say that it's great now, in fact, the greatest country in the world.
One might ask Trump when America was great and when and for what reason it's no longer great. The left understands that as a dog whistle for making America great again for white, male Christians, who are feeling threatened by egalitarianism.
Well he can't very well if he loses, his plans then I imagine would involve playing golf.
Have you forgotten that he's up for sentencing on 34 felonies very soon and unless he can take the White House and corrupt the DOJ again, he's looking at two indictments from Jack Smith, and one from Fani Willis that is out of federal control. Assuming a Harris victory, Trump's future is courtrooms and prison.
And that's another illustration of the difference between the relative lack of corruption (no mafia) under Garland and corruption by design under Trump. Remember Sessions as AG? Like Pence, he wouldn't break the law for Trump, and so he was removed and eventually replaced by Barr. That's how Trump corrupted the DOJ by design. Those who wouldn't commit crimes for him had to go.
What does that word mean to you?
Trump is a pathological liar. He is a career conman and deadbeat regarding his bills. He's been accused and found liable for sexual predation. He paid hush money to a porn star and then committed 34 felonies trying to cover it up. He is a serial adulterer. He attempted to overthrow a demonstrably fair election and incited an insurrection. He stole government secrets and tried to hide them from the law but not from his friends.
I imagine you see none of that.
Pence may not be the honest broker he appeared to be, perhaps DJT was the one who was cheated
This has already been investigated and decided. Legal claims failed. Elections were audited and ballots recounted. There was only a little voting fraud, and it was mostly committed by Republicans, although the fake electors schemes were major election frauds with little chance of succeeding as was Trump's now infamous phone call to Georgia for more votes. Each of those has resulted in multiple indictments and pleas already. And Trump trying to corrupt Pence re not certifying the election results. That's what election fraud looks like. And organized crime, mafia, swamp - they're all apt.
That was your response to, "I am pretty sure that Trump will be convicted if she wins. He will then probably spend the rest of his life in jail."
You're not paying attention to the news. You need mainstream news sources. It seems that you've been sheltered from much about Trump. Here's your chance to get some news that whatever you're looking at now isn't discussing. All one needs do to know these things is watch network nightly news (NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS):
There are currently three major felony level cases against Trump pending.
Jack Smith filed two of them from the DOJ, and they involve election crimes and classified documents crimes. They have been delayed by a controversial Supreme Court ruling.
And there is a state level indictment from Georgia for attempted election fraud that has been sidetracked in part due to personal indiscretions on the part of Fulton County's DA Willis.
And there are several states (AZ, NV, MI) looking at indicting Trump for the fake electors he sent to their states.
