Asking others to stop feeding the alligators is not the same as draining the swamp.  He merely asked to return to the status quo ante ... at least for now.   Not an exercise in courage or high ethical standards either.

The fact that he did it at all suggests that Trump will not behave as the lefties predict.

He won't be as bad as the "lefties" predict. He will be worse. He stands only for the upper 2% in income -- everyone else can suffer for them for the privilege of living in the purest plutocracy on Earth.

I expect to hate life under Donald Trump.
