I was a moment of autism. But the moment continues in little after-waves: I don't think Trump removed enough swamp to meaningfully justify the word "restocked", which is OP's word choice right after referencing a promise. It inherently implies the promise was fulfilled and then reneged on, which is NOT the case.

Replacing cabinet and key positions as quite literally every single President does and always has done... doesn't count as draining the swamp. Or even "removing stock and then afterward restocking". In the spirit of the base word "stock" I would say that "rotating stock" is the correct phrase.

The closest we got was idle "btfo the libs on twitter" talk about firing govt workers who were gone during the government "shutdown" budget snafu, since the govt was fulfilling nearly all its basic function without those workers. Never went anywhere.
