Just as there are countless criminals and villains who are being exposed as a result of these ongoing revelations, so, too, there are many heroes and statesmen declaring themselves—for which we must be thankful.
Ultimately, there will be many: Patriots, statesmen, whistleblowers, and even crooks—Swamp-dwellers who suffer pangs of conscience, or who seek to save their own skins—who will help pluck Lady Liberty from the jaws of the slimy, stinking Deep State Swamp Creature which threatens to engulf her and bring down the entire Federal Government.
If this is what is really happening—and all appearances are that it is—only President Trump can lead the country out of this desert and back into the Promised Land. America can never be made great again under current conditions. This putrid Swamp must be drained, and it's up to President Trump to pull the plug.
I understand the need for caution and deliberation, but, ultimately, corruption of this scale cannot be hidden; it cannot be overlooked; and it cannot be "swept under the rug" for some future generation or administration to deal with.
It's now or never! And this is no time for the President to lose his nerve or abandon the courage of his convictions. The more I see, the more convinced I am that the hand of Providence is at work—both in this President and the People of this nation.
As LS has noted, with corruption and decay this deep comes great peril. But if President Trump is too cautious, too complacent, or allows himself to be co-opted by the Swamp, then I'm convinced that he'll end up being dragged down with it.
The President's only option is to create separation between himself and the Swamp. Then—one by one, group by group, thousands by thousands, and millions by millions—every American can declare where they stand—with the President or with the Swamp. In the cataclysmic cleansing that is about to sweep through this government and nation, there can be no middle ground—no fence-straddlers.
Once those lines are clearly drawn—once the traitors and sunshine Patriots have revealed themselves—those who stand for America can then complete the task of draining the Swamp. I firmly believe that if President Trump doesn't adopt this struggle as the top priority of his Presidency, then nothing else will even matter ultimately. He will end up being removed from office—"legally" or not—and then everything we've all worked for will be systematically destroyed—in a way that will make the Obama years look like a trip to Disney World.
I don't think we're going to get too many more chances to clean this mess up. It's too pervasive, too systemic, too ingrained. We the People either make our stand here and now, or else we start planning to make that stand on the battlefield—and not the rhetorical or metaphorical battlefield—the real deal...
