“The RATs really fear Trump. Otherwise they would not be going after him so hard. They FEAR him.”

The deep-state must think Trump is their most powerful opponent.

I think they are right.

They are making an example of him.

They didn’t like the TEA Party. They work to keep the Green Party off of ballots.

They run the show and don’t like outsiders.

"The deep-state must think Trump is their most powerful opponent.

It's the people who voted for Trump they regard as the threat. That's nearly a third of the US citizenry.

You can hear and see it from their media mouthpieces with talk about "de-programming", etc.

Their fear is displayed by having fences and troops in DC. I think they fear a real uprising, because they know they're criminals.
