Hamhock, you don’t drain the swamp by making it bigger, deeper, and more foul…

The problem with this spin is the WH is admitting that Cohen was working for / with Trump WH. Otherwise there would be no way for this to prove anything about Trump’s lack of corruption.

Good. God. Almighty. This is exponentially grotesque!

Draining the swamp into his pockets?

Yeah, he’s draining the swamp so as to cause the swamp monsters to invade the nearby neighborhoods and eat everyone’s pets and children.

Did the White House press corps break down in laughter after she said this? Was it followed by a rimshot and then Sarah saying, “You’re the best audience in the world! And make sure to catch my act this weekend at The Chuckle Sandwich at the Holiday Inn in Georgetown. Two drink minimum. G’night, everybody!”

Hey, Ma Hamhock, “Draining the Swamp” obviously does not mean what you think it means.

“I think that this further proves that the President is not going to be influenced by special interests. This is actually the definition of draining the swamp…"

Tobacco Rose is really just spitballing now.

“I think that this further proves that the President is not going to be influenced by special interests. This is actually the definition of draining the swamp, something the President talked about repeatedly during the campaign,” Sanders said.

“Even though he pocketed 60% of the take, the President would not be influenced by these companies - except the Russian one. Novartis and AT&T just did not pay up big enough for the President to budge. It’s not like they couldn’t have afforded it, and the President knew this. That’s why he’s such a successful businessman and why his presidency should be extended for life and passed on to his children (except Eric and Tiffany).”

She’s pissing on us and calling it rain. Save that stuff for the Ritz Carlton Moscow please.

That, um, doesn’t make a lick of sense, Sarah. It’s just wordburgers squished together.

You’d think. But they’re still having the dry heaves over Michelle Wolf’s shady eye comment. Apparently it was very wrong for Wolf to be so dead-on correct and funny.

There she goes…burning facts again.

[/quote]That’s where the “For anything beyond that I would direct you to the president’s outside counsel" part comes in.
