RFK Jr. says Trump admitted to him he didn’t drain the swamp his first term and has asked him to help him drain the swamp moving forward:
“He said, I didn't know anything about governing and he said, we won this election, and then all of a sudden, you got to fill 60,000 jobs.”
“He said I was surrounded by people, by lobbyists and business interests who we’re saying, you got to appoint this guy, and that's what he did.”
“They brought in a telecommunications lobbyist to run FCC. They brought in an oil lobbyist, Ryan Zinke, to run the Department of Interior. A coal lobbyist to run the EPA. Another pharmaceutical lobbyist, Alex Azar, to run HHS.”
“He told me, I don't want to do that again. He said, those were bad guys and this time, we're going to do something different.”
“He’s not going to run again. He's a lame duck president and he wants to do something that's good for this country and I can help him do that because I have sued all these agencies.”
“He’s asked me to help him do that. So if we do that, if he does what he says, I'm very optimistic that we can actually remediate a lot of this corruption.”
“He said, I didn't know anything about governing and he said, we won this election, and then all of a sudden, you got to fill 60,000 jobs.”
“He said I was surrounded by people, by lobbyists and business interests who we’re saying, you got to appoint this guy, and that's what he did.”
Great political move by Pruitt. Really slick. Make all the academic grant research scientists ineligible to sit on EPA's boards and replace them with industry paid scientists. After all everyone knows giving a research grant creates a conflict of interest and being paid by the industry being regulated doesn't. I mean look at how tobacco industry scientists (ironically some have moved onto industry backed climate research) proved smoking doesn't cause cancer. Picture Pruitt as surgeon general in 1964.
Draining the swamp continues. Can't wait for more winning. MAGA
