Trump is CREATING a deep state.

[JGalt]

Man. You guys really don’t understand how fascist you sound.

Abraham Lincoln jailed pro-confederacy editors and shut down their publications.

Are you calling Honest Abe a "fascist"?

 

[TimFitz]

They continue to show us who and what they really are.

See, a Deep State is evil, commie and sent by Satan, UNLESS it is THEIR Deep State, which has literally been hand picked and literally passed loyalty tests. Something never seen in this country.

World history sure has come into better focus. Much more of it makes sense now.

Yet another emotional but meaningless and fact free response.

You can’t tell us what your imaginary “deep state ‘ is.

bit is a right wing boogie man.

Like the sort of conspiracy theories that right wing knuckledraggers love, the imaginary “deep state” is everywhere and nowhere, all seeing, all knowing, yet invisible.

You rant about it. But claim you don’t know, and can’t know what it is.

Very handy for people who don’t want to be bothered with knowing anything, but want simple childish explanations for the larger world they fear and resent.

 

[Independent thinker]

OK, then tell us all about the “deep state”.

What is it?

Who is it?

What are its aims?

Oh, and try, try to present something that resembles a fact, instead of empty meaningless labels and tropes.

CNN did a poll after the election and found that out of the voters who said that their number one reason for voting was to save democracy, 58% of those people voted for Trump.

I think you misunderstood my post.

 

[AntonToo]

LOL. And so did the democrats

Bullshit, no Democrat or Republican for that matter, got into office and did what Trump is now.

Trump admin is firing a-political carreer personel and replacing them with loayalists at every level. Trump wants no oversight, no professional independence, he wants loyalty over competence and to control the nerrative at every turn and level no matter how bullshit it is.

Not a single POTUS has ever conducted such a politicization operation and you will remember this day very differently when a less democratic minded Democrat administration gets in power and follows this new, corrosive, destructive precedent.

"There is no deep state" -- every leftist poster on this board one year ago.







.

And when asked to define the “deep state” most right wingers avoid the question entirely (a it is nothing more than a boogie man for simple minds0).

Others post empty fact free rants, advertising their own deliberate ignorance.

The OP is a left-wing progressive, a liberal, and a Democrat. So are you saying he too is offering a childish explanation for the larger world he fears and resents? I could go back through his post history and show you how many times he scoffed at the idea of a "Deep State", yet here he is fretting about it.

 

[TimFitz]

FOR YEARS….THERE IS NO DEEP STATE!!

Now, TRUMP IS MAKING A DEEP STATE!

What I do not understand is what these TDS fucks are getting from their pearl clutching.

Remember, the VAX STOPS THE SPREAD AND THE INFECTION?

We were all lied to. The brainwashed lefties do not care…cuz COVID CULT!

It is cognitive dissonance. They are too embarrassed to admit they are dumb fucks who bought the lies.

Masks stop the spread.
Vax stop infection and spread.
It came from bat soup.

You people are stupid as fuck.

Another empty fact free rant! No nothing nonsense.

And then there’s this:

“Remember, the VAX STOPS THE SPREAD AND THE INFECTION?”

What a totally idiotic lie!

 

[Rawley]

Trump has long complained about what he called the deep state. He thinks the deep state is a wide bureaucracy within the federal government who, on the orders of some anonymous person, are working to prevent him from succeeding because they just don't like trump. He claims any pushback he receives is purely personal and has nothing to do with their job requirements or what is good for the country. If social media is an accurate indicator, rump's offer to buy out current employees with the stated purpose of replacing them with trump loyalists is backfiring on him. Large numbers of government employees are posting that they are refusing to take the buyout and are staying for the specific purpose of interfering with trump's policies as much as possible. What trump has long feared is becoming real, and it's all because of his overreach.

Seems like it's a good thing these people are coming back to back to work rather than taking the buyout. Your perspective that it means Trump is creating a "deep state" is rather bizzare.

 

[Marener]

Are you calling Honest Abe a "fascist"?

Weren’t they advocating treason in a time of war?

Seems a bit difference than what you crazies are saying.

In other words, Trump was right. Again.

What does the OP have to do with anything?

If Trump said whit was black, you’d be walking into walls, and posting that Trump is “right”.

its not a deep state when they are following the constitution and orders of the commander in chief,,

 

[Luckyone]

LOL. And so did the democrats. Turnabout is fair play. It's funny how you guys have said for years that there is no deep state and now you admit that, yes, parties can indeed create a deep state. Glad to have you on board. You are no longer a fact denier.

So doing what you ACCUSE the Democrats of doing is the right thing to do? If you think so, then why did you criticize the Democrats doing it? That is pure hypocrisy.

Evidently, you do ENJOY having a deep state, as long as it is YOUR deep state, right?

Here is who is helping Trump run the government.

Trump fills his government with billionaires after running on a working-class message​

Elon Musk $400 Billion​

Linda McMahon $3 Billion​

Howard Lutnick $1.5 Billion​

Doug Burgum $1.1 Billion​

Scott Bessent $Hundreds of Millions​

Kelly Loeffler $Hundreds of Millions​

Jared Isaacman $Hundreds of Millions​

Rich people thinking of your needs? Naw, that doesn't happen.

The Deep state is now going full blast since they now have TOTAL control of all 3 branches of government (which the Democrats did not have). This means that now tangible deep state actions WILL happen, not just thinking that they might happen.

Hooray, right?

 

[Billiejeens]

That's the point. The so-called deep state only existed in MAGAs deepest fears. Now he's creating it.

God Damn you are stupid

 

[Luckyone]

You mean that Narcissist that wants total power in his hands and now the deep state wants his help so they too can have power and more money?

 

[Billiejeens]

The News York Times talked about the reality of The Deep State
They approved whole heartedly
That's your Bible - how did you miss that?

Sure they did. Every president creates their own deept state. Eight year presidents have a bigger deep state than four year presidents. They appoint their own people who in turn appoint their own people and the deep state grows exponentially. Then, when the other party takes over, the deep state works against the new party.

Now that's funny. For decades now you accuse the right of doing stuff and then you turn right around and do the very same thing. Remember, "When they go low, we go high"? While that was always a lefty lie, your side has always been, "When they go low, we'll show 'em we can go even lower". Michelle Obama wouldn't even go to Jimmy Carter's funeral because Trump would be there.
