"Draining the Swamp"....

Warning: This will be a rant. I usually try to avoid writing in this style, but I can not hold my tongue on this topic.
This article will be consumed in anger and disgust.

Donald  Trump absolutely baffles me. His war cry promise to "drain the swamp" is now starting to seem like nothing more than a strategic move laid out by an evil genius. Not only is this cabinet set to be the richest cabinet of all of American history, but 'the swamp' seems to be getting dirtier and,even more so, out of touch than prior cabinets. Trump's picks range in various evils from openly anti-LBGQT, to blatant climate change deniers, and even creationists, just to name a few. His choices for cabinet positions are possibly even more terrifying than his intended policies. At least with his outrageous policy ideas Congress had the potential to stop anything too crazy, and it seemed as though Trump had been backing out of some of his campaign promises. However with the slew of morally corrupt, anti-intellectuals he is dragging to our highest positions, there is now a very real sense of danger. This colossal threat can, and most likely will, affect all areas of American life, as well as, the very Earth itself.

Maybe there is reason behind these atrocious choices. For the life of me, I have no idea what that may be...but I will cling to hope that maybe Trump is some sort of evil genius and he plans to fool us all once again by disallowing these cabinets from making any drastic changes. For example, one cabinet member wants to slash medicare and abolish Medicaid. Trump wouldn't really let that slide right?

All these damned Republicans,blissfully ignorant to having been duped by this man, all preach that we should give him a chance, see what he does, allow him to mess up first. What they don't seem to realize is that even if Trump screws up so bad that he's impeached, this cabinet will remain until the next election. These horrific men and women will have a very firm grip on our freedoms and our lives for a long time.

I am scared for myself and my son. We should all be scared. Trump never intended to drain the swamp. He intended to win, which he did. And now he can achieve an agenda that none of the general public knew about. This man and his cabinet picks are a disgrace, and an embarrassment to our country. If you have a God, I suggest you pray to it for the sake and decency of our country. We may not all make it out of this Presidency unscathed.
