Trump must clean house before Democrats’ ‘investigation’ assault begins
The opinion piece argues that Donald Trump’s White House should address allegations and appearances of self-dealing before Democrats begin promised investigations. It says corruption was a major voter concern in the midterm elections, making even unproven suspicions politically damaging to the administration.
The article cites the sidelining of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Corey Lewandowski, and Kimberly Guilfoyle’s dismissal over alleged profiteering, as steps already taken. It urges new chief of staff Stephen Miller to pursue further changes before 3 January, when the piece expects Democrats to start scrutinising the administration; it also argues their investigations will obstruct Trump’s agenda.
In short
- The piece urges Trump’s team to address corruption concerns before investigations begin.
- It says appearances of self-dealing could further damage the administration.
- Stephen Miller is identified as the person best placed to lead a clean-up.
