Editor:

I am looking at a magazine that asks, “Will Liz Cheney and the Jan. 6 committee end Donald Trump’s political career?”

Sorry to disappoint Trump haters, but the citizens of Wyoming thought otherwise. Trump still wants to drain the swamp, and it looks like he’s practicing by draining the swamp inhabitants in his own party. Most of the candidates he endorsed won in the primaries. His political career is very alive, alive enough to scare the Democratic elite.

Between the Jan. 6 committee, the FBI raid and the endless anti-Trump coverage in the media, we should pay attention to the old saying, “He who laughs last, laughs loudest.”
