Russia Today redefines "draining the swamp" as replacing politicians with businessmen.

https://www.rt.com/op-edge/370281-trump-rex-tillerson-secretary-state/

"Experts" have told RT how Rex Tillerson is a sign of Trump "draining the swamp". With "draining the swamp" getting redefined by RT as getting rid of politicians and replacing them with Wall Street sharks.

And who are those "experts"?
Television and radio commentator Charlie Wolf (RT forgets to mention that he's a Republican)
Ed Shultz of RT America
Jeremy Nolt, former Trump Campaign volunteer in Arizona
John Hajjar, co-chair, American-MidEast Coalition for Trump

Nope. Absolutely no bias when it comes to reporting.

The alligators are now taking the swamp for themselves. After all, you can make more loot without a middle man.
