And this tweet is great, but I fear that many in Trump's administration think "drain the swamp" means fire liberals and anyone who disagrees with them, rather than what we commonly believe to mean reducing corruption, lobbying, cronyism, etc.

Trump's cabinet is building the swamp and literally charging people for access to meet Trump. He's keeping his conflict of interest business holdings and has already put political pressure on foreign governments to use his hotels.
