Trump will spend 4 years cleaning out the swamp. Then DeSantis can take over and keep it clean and on the right track. You elect DeSantis in 2024 he will be destroyed by 2028 and and progress made will revert. We need 12 years to get the country back.

Trump will spend 4 years cleaning out the swamp.

He didn't seem to get much of it cleaned out in his first 4 years, and his tactics and style now are absolutely no different than they were before. He has changed literally nothing. So what if the evidence that he's going to do things differently this time?

Here's the problem. It is impossible for any one guy to "drain the swamp". That would involve tens of thousands of personnel decisions he can't make. And not being a legislator/lawyer, he needs a bunch of those as well to fix the various laws and regulations, draft the orders correctly, etc.. So, he needs to have highly competent, intelligence appointees at all levels.

The problem is that he just can't seem not to alienate potential allies on a daily basis. There isn't a single person who served with him his entire Presidency with whom he is on good terms, and he's on bad terms with most of the ones that even only served part time.

How is it going to be any better the second time around?

How much of it did he clean out in the four years he had? What would be different in a second Trump administration?
