    You are confused as to why people “roll their eyes” when MAGA says “drain the swamp.” They’re rolling their eyes because Trump and his party are by far the most openly corrupt and nakedly transactional politicians in US history. We’d all love to see less corruption in DC. Supporting Trump is pretty much the dictionary definition of asking for more corruption.

      Drain the swamp was a slogan before the 1980s and popularized when trump started running in 2016. Dont get that confused. People are not saying drain the swamp in 2024. The people who are saying that now think Trump did not do an adequate job.

      Everyone can probably agree to drain the swamp. The problem is what the swamps consists of and how to do that.
