So Wray is Deep State...

Why have so many trump appointees turned out to be traitors? Trump must've been very naive about the Washington types and how they work and how they're only in it to protect their kind.

Because mcconnel tells Trump who, and who can not be confirmed in the senate. mcconnel is part of the gang of 8 and knew what was going on all along. They all wanted to take Trump out, now they are in protect mode. mcconnel approved barr because barr is a clean-up man. If you are expecting anyone in the deep state to be held accountable, you are in for a disappointment.

A great question.

While Trump knew how to play the New York political scene in order to get projects done, he may have underestimated DC politics.

His Sessions pick is a prime example. Wanted to reward a prominent early supporter of his. Turned out to be one of the worst things that could have happened to him.

Couple that, with a majority of career bureaucrats within the executive branch who are leftists, and Trump has always had an uphill battle. Resisted in the courts, resisted in Congress and resisted within the executive branch.

When it comes to (R) lack of support in particular, I think a lot of them saw the 24x7 RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA fever dream and thought he wouldn't last the first year in office and hedged their bets.

Trump is not a creature of WDC so how is he to know every Et Tu Brute suggested to him and inherited from Obunghole?
