Glenn Greenwald told FOX News host Jesse Watters that President Donald Trump is the first president in his lifetime to keep his promises once he took office. In an interview on Thursday, Greenwald added it remains to be seen whether Trump can override the establishment forces in his party.
JESSE WATTERS, FOX NEWS: So put your chin up and your shoulders back. Today was a good day. Substack columnist Glenn Greenwald joins me now.
Glenn, how do you think people are grappling with the speed of the change?
GLENN GREENWALD: I think it depends who the people in question are. If they're the people who have been ruling Washington with the same dreary bipartisan ideology that has kept the United States in this state of inertia and on the wrong track, according to most people, those people are petrified as they've been of Trump for so long. You're seeing the reasons why the establishment has both hated and feared Trump, because he doesn't abide by the bipartisan consensus in Washington that has kept this country on that wrong track, according to most voters.
But if you're the people who actually exercised your democratic right and voted for Donald Trump because you knew Washington wasn't working and you wanted someone to go in and break it and actually do so with great speed and assertiveness and not be constrained by these artificial rules they create to safeguard the status quo, then I think you're very happy. It's really the first time I've seen an election where a candidate stands up and makes a whole slew of promises about what they're going to do once they win, and then they win and they actually get into office and start doing exactly what they said they were going to do.

The embassy moved to Jerusalem. That’s when I knew he was serious.
The elites are so demoralized because they finally realize their media has been lying and is corrupt. I asked a friend where she gets her news and there was a long pause. She was embarrassed to say where she gets her news.The elites wondered out on the frozen pond of the legacy media and they hear the ice cracking below their feet. The elites wondered out and are so afraid they don’t know what to do. Ask any elite where they get their news and they become mute. They fear exposing themselves as the fool they have become. They are lost, adrift in the darknesss, out on the ice. Their shepherd, the legacy media, has led them to slaughter. One by one they are going over the cliff.
