He’s an ass, and a warmonger...

What supersedes the Presidential Records Act?

It’s a beautiful reflex by the deep state.
The more they dig and manipulate, the more deepstaters come out. The more they expose their selves, the more the people recognize their shenanigans.
Yes, their falsetta will drop to deep devastating despair and the upshot will be a stronger Trump.

I understand the sentiment, but even FR was on board with some of these appointments when they were happening. Hindsight being 20/20, the mask is now off on most of them.

I concur, he had a number of poor choices on his team. They worked against his vision and for the Deep State.

Bolton just needs to have:

‘I HATE TRUMP” Tattooed on his forehead. Then he wouldn’t have to talk at all.

Deep stater + warmonger = an especially dangerous combination.

I know. I see these responses from people like him, and I see that it was not that long ago when I heard “Deep State” and thought it was just an insult with no foundation.

Boy, was I ever wrong.

Then there’s Hillary, Biden and Pence...and none was President at the time of the “steal”.

John Bolton is the penultimate Deep Stater. I have grown to detest him.

Perhaps that is why Trump appointed Bolton to be his National Security Advisor. He’s one of many Deep Staters that Trump appointed, nominated, or embraced.

I know that you don’t come across as very bright, but it is entirely possible that the pool of Deep Staters available for someone like Trump to choose from might be very large compared to those who aren’t of that persuasion.

Of course, I understand that’s probably beyond your comprehension, so I have come to expect that from posters of your caliber.

If only we could have some people who post on this forum have that stamped on their tagline as well as their forehead, it might be easier to differentiate them.

Thank you.

I’m getting sick of the Freepers sitting on a fence in the middle of the road with their wet finger in the air whining that Trump “hired the wrong people”.

Where was he going to find decent Constitution believing people to fill all the positions? Many times Trump just lett them vacant.

The ones he chose begged for their jobs. Then exposed themselves. Those that begged and got nothing bloativate the most today. Chris Christie. Mitt Romney, Joe Scarborough, etc.

I don’t think it was intentional (not the 4D Chess thing people joke about) as much as it was that being a newcomer to the political scene, he had to depend on the recommendations of others.

In my opinion, that tends to concentrate the damaging effects in much the same way that a shaped explosive concentrates the damaging effects of a munition due to the smaller pool of non-deep state advisors.

When you think about it, he had to assemble a cabinet, advisors, NSC members, Ambassadors, the whole nine yards, and look at what happened in those months between him winning the election, and being inaugurated.

The Deep State began the process of poisoning the well to cripple him, beginning with General Michael Flynn. They began the process of taking anyone who was on his team (and not “their” team) and doing everything from spying on them or setting them up (as they did to Flynn) to ensuring people being considered for positions knew they would have no future in government or media if they took jobs with him.

And those that were bore the brunt of it. It is astonishing Trump was able to accomplish anything at all, yet he managed to do so. Think of what might have taken place in those four years had even a large part of his “own” party put themselves to the task and helped him.

Instead, the vast majority (though not all) didn’t want to upset the gravy train, and either meekly

Yet, we have people, even on this very forum of Free Republic, and on this thread, who are too intellectually narrowed to understand that, or too ideologically poisoned to see it.

They may disagree because they think some candidate is better than another one, and I don’t per se have a problem with that, but saying someone who likely didn’t understand the extent of the Deep State until he was being actively persecuted by it is incompetent because 80% of the candidates for a given position are captured out of greed or beholden to the deep state by blackmail or other means, well, it isn’t a well thought out proposition.
