Parenthetically speaking, you apparently have reading comprehension issues. Although it is amusing to see how fast Trump makes your head spin.

Hey Whell. The premise of your thread is fake news. It’s been debunked. It’s not real. Grow up, stop posting nonsense. Stay away from Limblow and Faux. They are lying to you. Fucking moron.

What do you imagine will have changed, to make this a possibility?

Right.
Trump is not the first authoritarian to make use of that 'clean up' metaphor....

You have a tendency to stoop to profanity, particularly when trying to make a very weak argument. Shows that, as usual, you've got nothing.
Nothing has been "debunked", no matter how much you wish that were true.

These are not my words. It was a direct quote from the article from the ever-insightful Chris Cilliza. And yes, it has been debunked. The guy was a confidential informant, not a spy, and he was not "imbedded" in the campaign.
You never seem to allow facts to get in the way of a good argument.

He also doesn't know what profanity is, although maybe he sees your quote as taking his Lord's name in vain.

Indeed. There was not a word of profanity in Cilliza's quote. To Whell, I suppose anything remotely critical of Trumplethinskin is beyond the pale, notwithstanding Trump's own behavior and rhetoric. Feckin' snowflake.

I think he was responding to my post #55, but got confused, and quoted your post. Poor Whell, in a state of constant confusion. Must be rough!
As for language: I served eight years in the Navy. Several others here have mentioned their military service. Salty language was a part of our daily vocabulary. I doubt that Whell, a Cadet Bone Spurs lover, would know anything about serving his country.
