He first started his career on fox news in two thousand and seven when he was a host of the new This novel, The Swamp: Washington's Murky Pool of Corruption and Cronyism and How Trump Can Drain It is written by Eric Bolling, a fox news channel host. He first started his career on fox news in two thousand and seven when he was a host of the new show at the time, “Happy Hour.” This started the rise of Bolling as he started to become more known around the political spectrum. Before he started to create his big impact to the fox channel as a whole, he attended college at Rollins to later graduate with a bachelor of arts degree in economics. Bolling also had a previous career with CNBC also as a commentator. Only to later join fox. Bolling was apart of the fox channel as he appeared on many different titles such as, The FIve, Cashin’ In, and Fox News Specialists until later being suspended for an investigation on sharing of “lewd” photos in two thousand and seventeen. The downfall of Bollings career hit rock bottom when a few months later his only son Eric had passed away from the major development and influence from the opioid epidemic. This changed how Eric viewed life in general and started to write more often. Although the release of this best selling book was shortly before these incidents, it still helps Bolling to create more works of literature in the future. This book, focuses on the main issues occurring throughout our past, present, and future in the white house. Bollings main goal is to inform the reader that our past is full of unknown but important information that needs to be shared. He also believes that through the presidency of Donald J. trump he can accomplish a drainage of false and inaccurate past that affects us today. This book closely relates to my personal political views, and I have always been a fan of Bollings on the big screen. Which happens to be one of the main reasons that I chose to read this book. Each chapter of Bollings novel, had a different topic beginning with our past and where all the corruption started. “ The nation’s Founding Fathers may have put the capital city in a literal swamp, but they did not want it to become the moral and political Swamp with which we live today.” (Bolling 199.) I believe that the way Bolling portrays government in the past is completely true and is what is hurting us so badly today. I also believe that Trump has the initiative and power to get done what he feels is right. I liked the majority of Bolling's viewpoints as we relate in feelings about our earlier governments and where we stand today. I would recommend this book to anyone who is willing to have an open mind and learn about the real collusion that happens without anyone finding out and helping just to cover someone up. Overall this book is a great way to learn more and connect to the thoughts and feelings on a political spectrum. This novel was definitely a good choice.. ...more "
