There is no deep state.
The "Deep State". LOL.. An argument for Cultist and Q-anon dupes alone.
What’s the average time served by ‘elected’ DC politicians and their average net increase of wealth during those decades?
I’ll wait.
The term "Deep State" has traditionally been applied to third world shit hole or authoritarian led countries. That was true until Trump came to power and turned our politics from first world to third world.
The Deep State was first first used in Turkey where the military worked with drug pushers against the Kurds without the knowledge of the elected government.
As used in the USA, the term Deep State is a conspiracy theory. A conspiracy theory for the weak minded.
A bureaucracy is not a "Deep State". A bureaucracy is not a government-wide conspiracy.
The "Deep State" has always been a lie as applied to the USA.....unless of course you do beleive this nation is no different than Turkey, Zimbabwe or Burma.
You can thank Trump for that.
