Let's finish this thought. It's not enough to merely Drain The Swamp, as the next democrat in the White House will merely fill it back up with more fetid water and even more malaria- and dengue-bearing mosquitos.
So what needs to happen? a) Retribution b) Legislation that enacts penalties for abuse of power
a) Retribution
When your opponent only understands power and making use of it, the only way they'll respect you (and subsequently using their power to abuse you when they have the chance) is to understand what FAFO means. The dems have put their people in all levels of government and have zero problem having these people abuse their positions for political gain. That needs to stop, yesterday: the government cannot function as a trusted entity if one political party is allowed to effectively be in charge even when they're not in charge.
So.
Appoint a series of temporary replacements who sole job it is to dole out punishment. You like political prosecutions? Cool. If you have a [d] behind your name, assume you're going to investigated, audited, indicted, what have you. If you're an Antifa rioter, there's no 2 weeks in jail and a slap on the wrist for felony rioting - nope, you're going to do hard time and have your life ruined (this should be happening already, but since it's not special emphasis needs to be made).
For Swamp Denizens caught engaging in abuses, fire them, cancel their pensions, and in certain fields make sure they never work in those fields again. I'm thinking here of "intelligence" officials caught with doing this stuff - fire them with cause, disrupt their retirements and permanently cancel their security clearances. Go even further and make it known these people are PNG in the private intel community.
Messages need to be sent.
Once the d's understand that there are severe, life altering consequences for abusing the American people then things can go back to normal.
