The FCC is so corrupt. FBI really should be brought in to clean house.

Ajit Pai is corrupt. There are good people still at the FCC.

As much as everyone hates Trump, he has been outstanding in highlighting the absurdly corrupt system. Can't drain the swamp you didn't know existed.

No one should be thanked for promoting such levels of blatant corruption. They're undoing the reforms already in place to stop them.

As well as resetting the bar that Americans are willing to tolerate, sadly.

Everyone knows corruption is rampant. He’s just the first one to talk about it so much. Too bad he’s only worsened the problem.

Uhm no America has been corrupt for a long time and people have been talking about it for a long time.

He doesn't talk much about anything, just word-vomits a lot on camera and on twitter.

Drain the swamp was a campaign slogan and Trump repeated it a lot, but haven't really talked about systemic corruption. (See the rootstrikers movement for some serious effort on the topic.)

The swamp is overflowing and the drain is not only clogged, but non-functional. If you really believe Trump is part of the solution and not another cog in the problem machine, I'd appreciate if you elaborate why.

> Can't drain the swamp you didn't know existed.

I.e the corruption has become so blatant as to be more widely acknowledged. I think there's an interesting possibility of "hitting rock bottom" and recovering, vs the probably rampant but less overt corruption in past decades.

I have heard an interesting point (relating to the FBI al least). Disclaimer, I do not necessarily agree: since trump has been under investigation for almost his whole presidency he cannot fire people because it would now be obstruction of justice.

Trump appointed Ajit Pai as FCC chair...

Like the FBI isn’t equally corrupt.
