Prolific use of the gallows is the only way to solve this. And at this point, I don't even care it is is done within the *rigged* legal system or not. Hit squads if necessary. I don't care about law anymore. Without justice, law is meaningless.
I’m pretty sure you will be pleasantly surprised when he eliminates multiple agencies without any explanation, or continuing outreach from some other agency. Gone,gone, and gone.
How do you propose dismantling the CIA might occur? Consolidation with other intelligence agencies? This could have better "optics" than elimination (so harsh!) but the arguments about who and what would survive would go on until, say, 2029.
@PeeboPreboskenes what has Trump said about Iran that has you concerned? I expect a return to "maximum pressure" which was working perfectly when he left office. Unless it is not feasible. They were broke, isolated, scared, impotent. Biden gave them life. We need to bring it all back again asap.
Very astute. The art of war comes in here. Some targeted decapitations (metaphorically 😳) will have to take place. They are powerful and must be entirely eradicated and destroyed
Trump is the most antiwar candidate we've had in presidential politics since Carter. You may not think that's much but the entire deep state does. That's the main reason they've been after him for eight tiresome long years.
As far as the deep state, I would argue they are currently deeply compromised. Military operation. or perhaps the word emasculated might be more appropriate. Notice that the CIA has not been in evidence much as to their usual actions to limit Presidential power. Doesn't mean they're done, just that viewing them in 2015 terms may not be as accurate. Ukraine? That will be done soon. Syria? I love how he said let them fight it out amongst themselves. We fight them, we fight both sides.
Something I've noticed about Trump. He doesn't give his game away at all and acts first, then he talks as if he's going to do that action. Oh, and keep in mind that the deep state, in all it's awesome power and I mean actual power, hammered away at this guy for eight years, tried several assassination attempts and failed utterly to stop him. All they did was get him riled up.
I think he'll be fine. As far as trying to slow him down, he's cutting out large amounts of government so they can't interfere.
Do you not think that populating the upper echelons of the military with persons not necessarily fit for service is not a form of internal control? Who could manage the military in such a state? Surely not the President charged with so doing. Perhaps all the focus on sexual variations is just one big distraction and disinformation psy-op.
Ordinarily I would think such a thing preposterous. Currently, and in light of what we have seen during the past decade, I am not so sure.
Wouldn’t be surprised. I recommend reading some Sun Tzu. One of his many very worthwhile Art of War theories, borne out in actual practice was to appear weak when strong, and strong when weak. This confuses and renders the enemy uncertain.
All dependent on whether there is an enemy, and whether Trump has been in charge for a while now.
How to know: I forget his name, but look at the way the media treats that transgender fellow in the blonde wig. He’s gone from belle of the ball to persona non grata quite rapidly. His job is done. Enemy thoroughly confused.
We can deal with Gates and China. Gates won't be around forever and he doesn't own that much farmland. More than I'd like but still not that much.
As for China they're not invading the US IMO. China has been insular for 5,000 years. They're also a total mess. I work with a couple of immigrants from China and the stories they tell make me not so worried about China.
I do worry for the safety of Trump and his team but I have faith in God and the American people.
We also have warships docked off the coast of China, planes constantly entering their airspace etc. These are great power games and the truth is none of us wants war. The real danger is US loss of hegemony making the deep state nervous.
Well Benz is former State Dept. The problem with his concern is that there was never a time when the CIA wasn't infecting the American public with its lies. From its first years Dulles and his crew were feeding manipulative stories to the press and distorting the conscience of America. They are more blatant in some ways now but they've actually run the domestic show in many ways since 1963. That's the problem with Rogan. He's just not knowledgeable enough to push back on nonsense like that.
People's expectations are high. And if Trump thinks he's going to hammer out some kind of negotiated agreement with the deep state he's done. They'll agree and agree and then manipulate him toward their aims by creating realities he has to respond to. They're like a giant python - once they get their body around your arm you're done.
How uncanny that no sooner did John F. Kennedy declare that he would delight in destroying the CIA than did John F. Kennedy find himself de-commissioned from life, and no sooner was Kennedy in his grave, but not yet quite cold therein, than did Dulles commission himself to serve as a commissioner on the commission to determine what the heck might have happened that day in Dallas.
The CIA has declassified some astonishing antics. Imagine what they have not disclosed.
They are cruel to their people, too, almost fearlessly so, as it can be well imagined what the consequences of taking the CIA on would be.

I would love to be pleasantly surprised.
Right now the ones I'm worried about are the CIA and FBI. I think he might handle the FBI but the CIA is another story.

Cia needs to be entirely removed from existence, all operations ceased. Which will end all the current wars on earth. Sad,isn’t it?

I forget the wording but he made some bellicose statement against Iran a few weeks back. I like your plan better.

The Syrian economy was the death knell for the SAA. Hard to get people to die for $30/month. The Trump sanctions were one of the biggest factors.
Another reason I don’t understand the hype for Trump. Perhaps his supporters are all pro-China accelerationists?

Well written dose of reality.
Thank you.

Time to attack.

We elected Trump.
