I think the term "the swamp" has varied meanings depending on who is using it, it's generally used by the right wing of course.

Some of the left apparently would deny its existence, or that it has any real coordinated influence.

And chose to not charge her with anything. Lucky her last name is not Trump. She'd be in prison.
Well they went on and on about "investigating" her for doofy charges that didn't exist, and definitely impacted the election. She certainly has a bigger complaint about the Swamp than Trump.

Doofy charges?  There were no charges at all.  There was an investigation into what seemed to be an improper use of email storage, right?  Secret materials stored on a server breaking specific rules?  Is that not correct?

I suppose "they" could have ignored the whole thing and not investigated at all, which would have been rather singular and probably caused another kind of ruckus.

You don't think keeping government documents, many classified, on an unsecure private server is a problem? Deleting 30K emails is fine?

Insecurely keeping classified documents (which he was never entitled to possess) in a garage and various offices is OK?

Yes, very normal to repeatedly and publicly investigate a presidential candidate on novel theories of criminal law right before the election. So normal and good.

Georgia fans are lucky they don't have to deal with The Swamp...

It would have been a "success" Trump could have bragged on. I would not be shocked to learn that the swamp delayed it.

The laptop would have also helped him, but the swamp suppressed that too.
Since when does he need a success to brag on?  lol

Political suspicions that begin with "I would not be shocked" are garbage and you're better than that.  

This reminds me: I'd like 2 rules concerning presidential candidates.
1 - with an age minimum, there should be an age maximum
2 - to avoid being an embarrassing dynastic rule state, once you become president, no one in your family is eligible to become president, including spouses (out to 1st cousins and grandchildren).

The anti-dynasty/nepotism rule should have been in the Constitution, sorry John Q.A.

Yep.
I was just focusing on the founding fathers.
