Translation; there really is “the deep state” of faceless zealots in the government and they are the “threat from within” Trump spoke about. All the media denials, lies and distortions to the contrary are just that.
It never fails. The autocratic morons on the left always believe they should be the ultimate "deciders" of everything.
That means that Trump needs to fire or get rid of 50% of senior government employees.
A recent survey of senior government employees revealed that 42% plan to work against the incoming Trump administration.
According to Tyler O’Neil, managing editor of the Daily Signal, “A surprising number of federal government employees admit they are gearing up to act like a deep state, opposing the incoming second administration of Donald Trump.”
He cited a poll by RMG Research Survey, commissioned by the Napolitan Institute.
This should not surprise us. Much of the federal bureaucracy was recruited from liberals who came to Washington to impose their values and views on Americans. Many regulatory agencies consider it their job to force the American people to do what bureaucrats proscribe.
Mr. Trump and the Make America Great Again movement are a mortal threat to these bureaucrats. If Mr. Trump does what he said he would do during the campaign, he will threaten the lifetime work of many senior federal bureaucrats. The Trump administration will wipe out everything they spent years trying to impose on the American people.
The new Elon Musk-Vivek Ramaswamy Dept. of Government Efficiency (DOGE) is an example of the threat Mr. Trump represents to establishment bureaucrats. The DOGE’s goal to cut $2 trillion from government spending will shatter the bureaucratic Washington establishment’s patterns, habits, procedures, and systems.
Imagine you spent 20 or 30 years methodically building a system that would let you achieve your ideological goals – even if the American people opposed you. Then imagine your life’s work is suddenly threatened by outsiders who are businesspeople who thrived outside the typical Washington environment. You would be horrified. For you, the barbarians are at the gate.
This is not a new problem. A senior George W. Bush Defense Department official once told me the Pentagon bureaucracy just hunkers down to outlast new administrations. They refer to appointed officials as “the summer help.”
It never fails. The autocratic morons on the left always believe they should be the ultimate "deciders" of everything.
