I recall during the campaign at his rallies Trump would say (at least at some of them) that his aids suggested he call his plans to end the corruption in DC "draining the swamp" but he thought it was cheesy. paraphrasing: "But I did say it and the crowd went crazy, you all love it so I'll keep on saying it!"

Basically he admitted he didn't personally like the expression. He liked the sentiment, not the expression. Personally I wouldn't be surprised if he went forward with all his "swamp draining" plans but never called it that again.

Funny. “Drain the swamp” is no cheesier than “MAGA.” Both have visceral appeal well beyond their intellectual capacity.
