The Swamp

As expected from HBO they could not resist the Orange Man Bad bias, but it is not too bad. If you focus just on the 3 congressman you will get the nice explanation of how political corruption is organized.

I am sure they could have picked better footage to put in the movie, but as mentioned bias and desire to tell the fun story got in the way. That aside this movie is really unique in the mainstream as it clearly describes corruption mechanisms.

My only wish is that there is a 6 hour directors cut for people like me that would like to know a bit more of boring details, instead of nicely edited cool parts.

Started out decent and interesting but then like so many others turned into blatant anti-Trump propaganda. Wouldn't be surprised to find out the documentary filmmakers are part of and funded by the swamp...

This documentary why both political parties are stuck on stupid --and the conclusion is, MONEY! Ro Khanna (Dem) and Matt Gaetz (Rep) don't want to take money from lobbyists or PAC accounts, but they need to stay in Congress. This shows an pretty even-handed view of the stratification in DC today.

Basically, a story of who Matt Gaetz is, and who he thinks he is!😏

This "HBO" political doc called "The Swamp" highlights the corruption and greed that is so common with politics as how each party and outside lobby folks and super PAC's pour crazy money into the political game. However the film highlights and spotlights three Trump warrior supporting congressman in Florida's Matt Gaetz, Kentucky's Thomas Massie, and Colorado's Ken Buck each who are bucking the system and trying to bring change with their libertarian like ways of not being yes men and accepting huge donations from lobby guys and outside sources. All are apart of the newly formed Freedom Caucus as they also have a priority to fight against excessive wars and to much military funding. The doc is well backed with interviews, speech clips, and news footage that supports all three. Really the film gives insight to new hope in D.C. as it tries to bring new ways and fight the current good old boys political structure. No matter what side of the aisle you support if you follow politics watch this interesting eye opening informative doc.
