How Will Trump Get Rid of the 'Deep State'? Not the Way You Think.

I don't know about you, but when I heard that Donald Trump vanquished Kamala Harris like a grease-painted political special operator with a sharpened-to-perfection Ka-Bar, I breathed a sigh of relief. The next thing I thought was bye, bye, Barack Obama. And the next thing I thought about was, how will Trump scrape the Deep State barnacles?

Trump has gone on the record about what he will do about this Deep State. 

He's laid out ten goals during his campaign that will begin right away which are all laudable:

1. On Day One, re-issue 2020 executive order restoring the president’s authority to fire rogue bureaucrats.

2. Overhaul federal departments and agencies, firing all of the corrupt actors in our National Security and Intelligence apparatus.

3. Fundamentally reform the FISA courts, ensuring that corruption is rooted out.

4. Establish a Truth and Reconciliation Commission to declassify and publish all documents on Deep State spying, censorship, and abuses of power.

5. Launch a major crackdown on government leakers who collude with the media to create false narratives, pressing criminal charges when appropriate.

6. Make every Inspector General’s Office independent from the departments they oversee, so that they do not become protectors of the deep state.

7. Establish an independent auditing system to continually monitor our intelligence agencies to ensure that they are not spying on our citizens or running disinformation campaigns against the American people.

8. Continue Trump administration effort to move parts of the federal bureaucracy outside of the Washington Swamp, just like President Trump moved the Bureau of Land Management to Colorado.

Up to 100,000 government positions could be moved out of Washington.

9. Ban federal bureaucrats from taking jobs at the companies they deal with and regulate, such as Big Pharma.

10. Push for a constitutional amendment to impose term limits on members of Congress.

Personally, I think he should demand that every member of the Executive Branch sign letters of resignation to have on file for when he needs them. That would obviate the need for protracted legal hassles. 

Lee Smith pointed out in my interview with him on my Adult in the Room Podcast about in his new book, "Disappearing the President: Trump, Truth Social, and the Fight for the Republic," that you can't go after thousands of people. That's a "losing" proposition. You need to go after only a small number. 

Everything. Let me repeat: EVERYTHING that has happened to tear down Donald Trump since he declared for president in 2015 has been done with the blessing, endorsement, or, at the very least, the tacit approval of Barack Obama. 

Spy on the Trump campaign? Obama pulled the trigger on that. Comey setting up Trump in an attempted extortion plot? Obama knew about it. Trump is a Russian spy? Hillary Clinton's Russia hoax was blessed by Obama, his CIA director, FBI director, and Joe Biden. The guy orchestrating the lawfare against Trump? Obama's Democrat operatives and buddies, including Marc Elias and David Brock, were bankrolled by George Soros and other billionaires. 

He promised to "fundamentally change the United States of America," and he did.

Obama's an expert on how to foment divisiveness. He's a community organizer.

In the best, "never let a crisis go to waste" zeitgeist, Obama and his malefactors parlayed the COVID pandemic into a rigged election. They supported weakening election laws with universal mail-out ballots during COVID. Obama cooed over it on Twitter 1.0. At every step, Obama was on the side of obliterating norms. After all, the communist students strived to accomplish the transformation of America. 

I don't know how Trump might go about attacking the influence of Obama, but it's a worthy goal.
