There's a common scene in many movies where the bad guy--lurking among good, honest people--is suddenly exposed for all their crimes. Often it's a news article, or a hot mic, or even just a public accusation that's enough to expose them and ruin all their plans. The authorities leap into action, punish the wrong doer, justice is served, good wins.
That's not how it works in real life. In reality, the majority of the people in power are corrupt and evil, and when one good person dares to speak out or try to expose them, the authorities leap into action to punish the do gooder, to make an example out of them, and ensure no one else dares notice reality.
Things are really much worse than people realize. Trump thought he could drain the swamp, but it was far worse than a mere swamp and he underestimated it completely, and who could blame him because nobody wanted to believe how bad things really were.
Its like the entirety of the political machine is just a endless bog with demons thrown in the mix for good measure.
