Didn't Trump criticize Hillary for her connect to Goldman Sachs?

"Feel like something is not going according to campaign promises YET?"

Drain the swamp, only to put more alligators in there.

Picking CEOs for cabinet positions has nothing to do with draining the swamp. Brian Williams is a proven liar.

What do you think this term "draining the swamp" meant?

Steve Williams Monday, December 5th 2016 at 9:31AM

He was referring to lobbyists. That's why his appointees all are required toagree to a five year ban on lobbying after serving in his administration.

Steven, remember Goldman Sach had played a important roll in the financial reaping of this country during the TRICKLE DOWN EXPERIMENT and we who had investments found out, that TRICKLE DOWN did not work.

Now I hear this term Drain the swamp but yet Trump put over America's Financial Treasury Goldman Sach's top alligator over that department. TRICKLE DOWN Economics is BACK!!!!!

This is what makes Washington a swamp. Trump knows how to bring competency to Washington.

Jacob Joseph "Jack" Lew (born August 29, 1955) is an American government administrator and attorney who is the 76th and current United States Secretary of the Treasury, serving since February 28, 2013. He served as the 25th White House Chief of Staff from 2012 to 2013. Lew previously served as Director of the Office of Management and Budget in the Clinton and Obama Administrations, and is a member of the Democratic Party.

Born in New York City, Lew received his A.B. from Harvard College and his J.D. from Georgetown University Law Center. Lew began his career as a legislative assistant to Representative Joe Moakley and as a senior policy adviser to former House Speaker Tip O'Neill. Lew then worked as an attorney in private practice before working as a deputy in Boston's office of management and budget. In 1993, he began work for the Clinton Administration as Special Assistant to the President. In 1994 Lew served as Associate Director for Legislative Affairs and Deputy Director of the Office of Management and Budget, where he served as Director of that agency from 1998 to 2001 and from 2010 to 2012. After leaving the Clinton Administration, Lew worked as the Executive Vice President for Operations at New York University from 2001 to 2006, and as the COO at Citigroup from 2006 to 2008. Lew then served as the first Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources, from 2009 to 2010.

On January 10, 2013, Lew was nominated as the replacement for retiring Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, to serve in President Barack Obama's second term.[1] On February 27, 2013, the Senate confirmed Lew for the position. He was sworn in the following day.

he’s already giving us an object lesson in what real conflicts of interest look like, as authoritarian governments around the world shower favors on his business empire.

What’s truly scary is the potential impact of corruption on foreign policy. …someplace like Vladimir Putin’s Russia can easily funnel vast sums to the man at the top… So how bad will the effects of Trump-era corruption be? The best guess is, worse than you can possibly imagine.

Who do you think was in the swamp in the first place FUFU!!! WOW!!! HAVE YOU HEARD OF PAID TO PLAY?
