    Poor people are giving their last dollar to a criminal billionaire so he can rid the government of the people who are making them poor.

    This is deeply saddening.

      But he wouldn’t rid the government of the people making them poor, unless you mean that he’d replace them with people making them even poorer.

        We know that. Unfortunately, “draining the swamp” is the narrative his supporters have accepted as truth.

          Is that a phrase they use ? there’s an anti-establishment ring to it, I suppose that’s the gist. (I am not in the US, lacking a bit of context)

            Trump has been saying he’s going to drain the swamp of all the criminals in Congress and the White House since 2015.

              Swamps are useful, with a lot of biological diversity.

              Trump and the people that follow/vote for him are more like used pieces of toilet paper.
