Trump Drains the Swamp. Not!

On today’s episode of Double Down, hosts Max Keiser and Stacy Herbert are joined by former banker turned blogger, Michael Krieger, to discuss whether or not Trump is draining the swamp. Or filling it.

Donald Trump promised to ‘drain the swamp’ that is the cesspit called Washington DC, filled with horrid lobbyist beggars and assorted corporate welfare queens. Since winning the election, however, Trump has nominated three Goldman Sachs bankers and (perhaps) a handful of CEOs of major corporations to his administration. Michael Krieger tells Double Down that Steve Mnuchin to Treasury is one of the more terrifying of the swamp creatures to occupy Trump’s D.C. But will Trump’s appointment of the worst of the swamp creatures actually advance his alleged cause of draining this said swamp? Tune into Double Down for some answers.
