If you’re going to “drain the swamp” then the last thing you want to do is set a 500 lb crocodile loose into the marshes. 
Throughout his campaign, President-Elect Donald J. Trump was adamant about getting rid of the redundant North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). So why then is he courting globalist acolyte David Petraeus?
