IRD believes that the Deep State’s plan all along was to use the election of Trump as a stalking horse to “back door” their obedient foot soldier, Mike Pence, into the Oval Office. Too be sure, HRC was a Deep State emissary but she also had her own power base and political/financial agenda. Forcing Pence onto Trump as his running mate (who ever heard of Pence, who reminds me of Lawrence Olivier’s dentist in “Marathon Man,” before the election?) and then destroying the Trump presidency gives the Deep State complete control the Executive Branch (it owns Congress and controls the SCOTUS – see the Citizens United decision).

This post by my friend and colleague, Paul Craig Roberts, explains the methodology used by the Deep State to accomplish its goal:

We are witnessing an assault by the national security state and its liberal media on a President of the United States that is unprecedented…What we are witnessing is the determination of the national security state to keep their prized “Russian Threat” in its assigned role as the Number One Threat to the US. The liberal media, owned by the CIA since the 1950s is in accord with this goal. The American media is so accustomed to its enslavement by the national security state that it does not think of the consequences.

As an aside, isn’t it amazing the way the Deep State has taken an accusation that has not proof of validity – absolutely no proof – and turned it into a national fear agenda that is endorsed by the mainstream media and accepted by status quo as real?  George Orwell could not have scripted this more perfectly.
