As Politico put it, describing their own 2014 review of Trump’s predecessor, “The Obama administration has hired more than 70 previously registered lobbyists . . . and watched many officials circle through that revolving door, as Obama’s lobbying policy was weakened by major loopholes and a loss of focus over time. What’s more, the current laws around lobbying, which the administration measures were built on, simply ignore many instances observers would regard as lobbying — and the White House never pressed for changes to those laws.” Now look at the panic once an outsider — who did not regard the culture of Washington with cautious respect — came along. You’d think Trump was a horde of invading Vandals from the way the media, politicians, and D.C. interest groups reacted to his election.

Greatness, on the other hand, requires the liberty and the drive to make the most of yourself.

We have been tirelessly fighting against the well-oiled machinery of “Team Left” and we have been taking them on aggressively at every turn. We fight them with their own tactics and we fight them with new ones they haven’t before seen. Mostly what we are trying to do is to move away from the apologies and counterpunches commonly associated with Team Right and hit preemptively and hit hard.
