Elections "The Swamp"... what happened to the outrage?

[ChosenOne]

Nobody here can provide a more blatant example of a call to fill 'The Swamp' then these two, but i would love to see anyone try to quote any politician making a more direct call to fill up the swamp...

Trump says he has ‘no choice’ but to back EVs after Musk endorsement​

...
Donald Trump has for months denigrated electric vehicles, arguing their supporters should “rot in hell” and that assisting the nascent industry is “lunacy”. He now appears to have somewhat shifted his view thanks to the support of Elon Musk, the world’s richest person.

“I’m for electric cars, I have to be because Elon endorsed me very strongly,”...
...The transactional nature of this relationship with Musk was made clear by the former president and convicted business fraudster, however. “So I have no choice,” ..

Trump’s $1bn pitch to oil bosses ‘the definition of corruption’,​

Donald Trump’s brazen pitch to 20 fossil-fuel heads for $1bn to aid his presidential campaign in return for promises of lucrative tax and regulatory favors is the “definition of corruption”, a top Democrat investigating the issue has said.

“It certainly meets the definition of corruption as the founding fathers would have used the term,” ...

...The quid pro quo – so called – is so very evident … I can’t think of anything that matches this either in terms of the size of the bribe requested, or the brazenness of the linkages.”...

... former Federal Election Commission general counsel Larry Noble said that Trump’s unusually aggressive money pitch “violates the letter and spirit” of campaign-finance laws, and a veteran Republican consultant called it “blatant pay to play”....

Has The Swamp been embraced by Magats since Trump just 'came out' of the closet with regards to his embrace of The Swamp?

It's interesting to see Trump test the beliefs of today's Republicans. They used to pretend to care about debt, but Trump's policies showed that was fake. A lot of them used to pretend to be pro-markets, but Trump showed that was fake. Character, gone. Libertarianism, gone. Anti-corruption, gone. Anti-crime, gone. The only thing Trump's ever gotten pushback on is support for vaccines.

Yeah but there are levels to it and one side seems to want to equate them instead.

There never was any outrage. When Rex Tillerson became Secratary of State in '17 without a peep, that became pretty clear.

It's just team branding.

This is something dumb people say to sound smart, and it's encouraged by crooks because the effect is to help them get away with it (if everyone is corrupt, that means no one is because it's just standard).

“I’m for electric cars, I have to be because Elon endorsed me very strongly,”...

He's said stuff like this so many times, even about brutal dictators. Something like "I can't say bad things about him, he said nice things about me!" It's just a giant advertisement for how easy he is to manipulate, that his positions can turn on a dime, because he has no real beliefs or integrity.

We're back on top for now after upsetting UCF.
Meanwhile FSU is 1-5 and still taking over $22 million in public funding annually.

Are you suggesting I beat my wife? Or are you referring to that one, singular study of a non peer reviewed woman who got her data from anonymous surveys?
