Of course Trump doesn't want to #DrainTheSwamp -- he's a swamp monster who thrives off corruption.

Last year, Mark Meckler, one of the founders of the tea party movement, had concerns about Donald Trump but gave the Republican nominee the benefit of the doubt, because Trump at least says hes going to attack the crony-capitalist system.
Now the conservative activist has revised his opinion. Trump said he was going to D.C. to drain the swamp, Meckler said in a recent Fox Business interview, but now it looks like weve got the Creature from the Black Lagoon in the White House.
For everybody else who believed Trumps populist talk about tackling a rigged system, its time to recognize youve been had. The president of the United States is a swamp monster.
The billionaire has embraced a level of corporate control of the government that makes previous controversies involving corporate influence Vice President Dick Cheneys attempt in 2001 to keep secret the names of industry officials who participated in his energy task force, for example seem quaint by comparison. .............................
