God bless the ‘deep state’

By Eugene Robinson

July 19, 2018 at 6:34 PM

President Trump. (Jabin Botsford/The Washington Post)

Before this harebrained and reckless administration is history, the nation will have cause to celebrate the public servants derided by Trumpists as the supposed “deep state.”

The term itself is propaganda, intended to cast a sinister light upon men and women whom Trump and his minions find annoyingly knowledgeable and experienced. They are not participants in any kind of dark conspiracy. Rather, they are feared and loathed by the president and his wrecking crew of know-nothings because they have spent years — often decades — mastering the details of foreign and domestic policy.

God bless them. With a supine Congress unwilling to play the role it is assigned by the Constitution, the deep state stands between us and the abyss.

--

Democrats in Congress are powerless; the Republican leadership, spineless. Experienced government officials know that their job is to serve the president. But what if the president does not serve the best interests of the nation?

In this emergency, the loyal and honorable deep state has a higher duty. It’s called patriotism.

Note the veiled reference to assassination:

"I would have to wonder about the loyalty of my commander in chief. And I would have to think about my duty to the nation."

so libs are now in the position of demanding that people trust the same CIA that libs claim pushes drugs into the ghettos and carries out other shady/illegal propaganda and spying operations?

libs? please make this ideologically-consistent for me.
