22. Now if he can get rid of the lobbyists in Congress...
This is a step in the right direction. But as long as the lobbyists control Congress the special interests the lobbyists represent will still prevail over the public interest of the people.

No offense but it sounds like we have a White House full of lobbyists. Of course at this point I guess that is all you have in Washington. When they're not working for someone in Congress, they're lobbying the people they worked for. Or will work for. Or want to work for.
