It was true in the time of the colonists, and it's true in the early twenty-first century, if we don't let the voices of doom make us forget. American is the greatest nation on earth, and our lawmakers must protect what God has blessed us with. I am optimistic that with the simple, commonsense changes to the way the government works I've described in these pages, Donald Trump can drain the Swamp and America can achieve new heights of prosperity." - Eric Bolling "When Washington, D.C., was first built, ironically it was erected on top of an actual swamp that had to be drained. Donald Trump says it's time to drain it again. In The Swamp, bestselling author and Fox News Channel host Eric Bolling presents an infuriating, amusing, revealing, and outrageous history of American politics, past and present, Republican and Democrat. From national political scandals to tempests in a teapot that blew up - sex, bribery, blackmail, bullying, and backroom deals that contradicted public policies, cronyism that cost taxpayers millions and billions of dollars, and personal conduct that can only be described as regrettable - The Swamp is a journey downriver through the bayous and marshes of Capitol Hill and Foggy Bottom. The presidential election of 2016 was ugly, but it exposed a political, media, industry, and elite establishment that desperately wanted to elect a politician who received millions of dollars from terror-funding states over a businessman willing to tell the corrupt or incompetent, "You're fired." The book concludes with a series of recommendations for President Trump: practical, hardheaded, commonsensical, and concise ways to drain the swamp and force Washington to be more transparent, more accountable, and more effective in how it serves those who have elected its politicians and pay the bills for their decisions. Entertaining and timely, The Swamp is the perfect book for today's political climate." - from the inner front jacket flap. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 001515
