“I’m worried about people not wanting to come here because of the image they have of the Trump administration.”

Step one in draining the swamp.

The Washington establishment should be grateful.

Had Trump not arrived on the scene, it would only be a matter of time before their heads would be on pikes up and down Constitution Avenue.

DC does not have a culture.
It has a psychosis.
