Outsiders Take Power in Trump's Washington (Liberals & RINOs "Shuddering")
The Hill ^ | 11/19/2016 | NIALL STANAGE

People once confined to the political fringes will be at the center of power in Donald Trump’s White House.

Liberals and even some moderate Republicans are shuddering at the prospect. But it is a source of delight among conservatives who believe the GOP establishment has drifted too far from its core principles.

Of the people tapped so far by President-elect Trump, only one — Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus — is identified with the party’s mainstream. Priebus will be chief of staff in the Trump White House.

Trump said on the campaign trail that it was all a waste of time if he didn’t win. The next concern is that it will all go to waste if this revolt of the people doesn’t result in 4 or 5 successive presidential terms. It will take a long time to change the culture of the media, the culture of DC, the culture in the establishment enclaves. Until then, they will look at this as a short-lived temper tantrum, and sit back and wait us out.

I wonder if they are beginning to think Trump meant it when he said, "Drain the swamp?"

I wonder if Trump meant it. It looks as though he did.

The very best part of all of this is he owes them zip.

Good. Draining the swamp is necessary if this nation is to survive the anarchists, led and promoted by the elite establishment. I wonder whether everyone saw what happened to Vice-President elect Pence when he went to the theater last night. Those people are animals and will stop at nothing. Do they not know that such crude behavior simply shows the world that why good people in this nation are happy to welcome President Trump. The cruel will not win. Soon we are going to see support for our new President from other nations. They know what is going on here and I am sure they do not want the evil to continue.

“WTF happened to the MSM-DNC leftwing, coordinated meme from last week - “So much for Draining the Swamp - Trump is hiring all inside swamp creatures”.”

Trump cut ties with all the Christie guys and that rendered the talking point moot. They’re off to the next reason why Trump will fail.
