If you ever doubted that there exists a Deep State, which perpetuates the status quo regardless of elections, think again.  The only thing the entrenched Democrat and Republican members of this cabal agree on is that, no matter who gets elected, they must stay in power.  The Deep State is comprised of political insiders.  These are elected officials, lobbyists, former officials who aspire to be lobbyists, fixers, contributors who buy influence, and the assorted thieves and charlatans who gladly accept dirty money to thwart the will of the people.  The Deep State hates President Trump because he’s not one of them.  They get stronger as government grows ever larger, taxes more, spends more, and exerts more control over our lives.  Meanwhile, Trump arrived on the scene promising to cut the federal workforce (blasphemy), cut taxes (insanity), cancel regulations (heresy), and prohibit former officials from cashing in as lobbyists (downright treason).  It’s no wonder showing Donald Trump to Deep State denizens was like showing vampires the cross.  The irony is that the Deep State is responsible for making it possible for Donald Trump to become President.  For decades, thieving politicians whispered sweetly in our ears about how much they shared our views.  Then we elected them, and they ignored our wishes, until the next election.  If the Deep State bastards had delivered what they promised, even once in a while, they could have continued their game.  But instead, all they ever gave us were empty promises, lies, half-truths, financial solicitations, and then the back of their hands, until it was time to vote for them again.  We finally had enough.  In a field of 17 Republican candidates, 14 were from the Deep State.  The deepest Deep Stater, the one most solidly embedded in the establishment was Jeb Bush.  He also was the best funded, and he was the first to be eliminated.  Of the three non-establishment candidates, Ben Carson (a good man) didn’t have the political chops to go the distance.  The other two, Ted Cruz and Donald Trump, were the last two standing. When I wrote, in February 2015, that a conservative populist could win, I had Cruz in mind.  Evidently, Donald Trump had come to the same conclusion.  Trump is the Deep State’s worst nightmare come true.  He wasn’t a creature of the establishment.  He owed them nothing.  For the Deep State, it’s all an act.  They are behind the curtain  pulling the strings.  As I’ve said before, Trump is like Rocky, “He doesn’t know it’s a damn show, he thinks it’s a damn fight.”  And worst of all, Trump isn’t even for sale.  He has his own money, so he doesn’t need theirs.  They did all they could do to stop him.  Hillary bought the phony dossier from the Russians, by way of a British spy, by way of Global Fusion, by way of her lawyer (information laundering?).  She gave the crap to the Obama Justice Department.  Former DNI James Clapper has said it was Il Duce Obama who ordered the Trump/Russia investigation.  No surprise there. (The fish stinks from the head).   The CIA got in the act, the FBI got phony FISA warrants to spy on Trump.  They cleared Hillary without an investigation.  After Trump was elected, Comey withheld information from him, set him up, set up General Flynn, and orchestrated the Mueller investigation, which, 2 years and $35 million later, came to nothing.  So now, unending unconstitutional Congressional investigations, into the President’s private affairs, his family, his closest advisors, and his businesses.  I’ve never been accused of being naive, but is it too much to ask that a President of the United States be treated with the common decency due any American citizen, much less the chief executive?    It won’t happen.  Too many Obama officials broke myriad laws constructing their “insurance policy” to end the Trump presidency.  Bill Barr cancelled that policy.  Now he’s doing the latest remake of Double Indemnity, investigating the underwriters who sold the policy.  But the Deep State thugs will never give up.  They have to protect their phony baloney jobs.  Harumph!  They can’t let the peasants with pitchforks, the smelly Walmart people who elected his President, get the idea that their votes actually count.  That’s why they must fight this President tooth and nail, whatever the cost.  And consider the costs.  Trump has the economy humming, unemployment at historic lows, wages rising, inflation nowhere to be seen.  They don’t care.  They want a big fat infrastructure bill, but not from Trump.  They want amnesty for the Dreamers, and Trump offered it.  They refused. Nobody deported more aliens than Il Duce Obama.  He actually did lock kids in cages.  Nobody complained.  But if Trump doesn’t ignore immigration laws, if he doesn’t lodge illegals in Trump Tower, or if HUD won’t violate the law and place illegals in public housing, he’s a racist.  We have a Legislature that will not legislate.  They can’t pass a budget.  It’s their job to fix the immigration laws.  They won’t.  They don’t care about you.  They don’t care about the border, U.S. sovereignty, Americans’ jobs, or our national security.  They and their media lapdogs bitched and lied about “Russian collusion” for nearly 3 years.  Picture it.  They bought Russian lies about Trump, and used it to try to frame Trump for consorting with the Russians.  In so doing, the Deep State has given aid and comfort to the Russians.  Putin’s goal was to sow the seeds of chaos in America, to weaken our government.  With the help of the Deep State, he succeeded beyond his wildest dreams.  The Clintons took money from the Russians.  Joe Biden and son took money from Ukrainians allied with Russians, and from the Chinese, who Trump is fighting on trade.  Deep Staters pretend to be Americans, but business is business.  They sold you out before, and they’ll do it again.  All this proves that the Deep State is really a shallow cesspool.  Trump must be destroyed.  He’s costing them money, and he’s proved we do much better when we take the boot of the Deep State masterminds off our necks.
