in World News Trump Declares War on ‘Crooked’ and ‘Dishonest’ Washington Establishment: ‘They’re Gonna be Held Accountable’
In a fiery interview with former Navy SEAL Shawn Ryan, President Donald Trump launched an unprecedented attack on the Washington establishment, declaring that the “crooked” and “dishonest” political elite will soon face their reckoning.
As the 2024 election season heats up, Trump is doubling down on his promise to drain the swamp, taking aim at the political dynasties that have long dominated the nation’s capital.
Ryan: “One of the biggest problems within the country is the distrust in the United States government. I’m one of them. I have zero trust in any government agencies. I have zero trust in our Congress and our Senate, anything. We have a government that’s not functioning right now. How are you going to gain the trust back of the American people within the government? And are we going to see anybody held accountable?”
Trump: “The answer is yes on the second. They’re going to be held accountable. They’ve got to be held accountable. What they’re doing, they’re destroying this country. They’re crooked people. They’re dishonest people. They’re going to be held accountable.”
Reflecting on his first term in office, Trump admitted he made some mistakes due to his outsider status. Trump acknowledged that he often relies on his advisors, and even RINOs before, for decision-making, and it’s becoming increasingly clear that he’s been consistently receiving poor advice.
However, Trump emphasized that he has since learned the ins and outs of Washington and now knows everybody.
