      The candidate for congressional office at Utah GOP convention that vowed to root out the so-called Deep State received A LOT more positive feedback than candidate who declared Russia meddled in 2016 & will meddle again. But this being Utah, no boos.

      This should probably make professional Washington reflect on itself and its behaviour. Instead, they'll probably just self righteously conclude every Republican in Red America is a boob.

      Sally Yates defying the President as she did, McCabe lying, FBI Leaks, Comey's Anti-Trump Press Tour. If you sent a President to change Washington, it's pretty obvious that Washington is opposed to change and effective at preventing and undermining it, dubious means or not.

      ...If Congress and POTUS want to prioritize the reform of Intel agencies & other bureaucracies, they can do so. BUT - thanks for answering my question & explaining your POV. Appreciate it.

      I don't think its fair or accurate to say the administrative state is equally resistant to all administrations or all ideas. Trump's 'foreigness' to DC, as well as the ideas that won him the election are revilled in DC. Anywhere from tariffs to immigration restriction.

      Disagree but noted. Again, my main point is that its damaging to imbue this so-cabal w/ conspiratorial powers. They can't stop Congress/POTUS from acting on trade, immigration, etc etc.

      Congress can. Sally Yates tried. I just think its sort of silly to pretend the ideological resistence is just the official Democratic Party. You aren't getting tarrifs or immigration cuts through this Republican Senate, even without the filibuster.

      Cuz there isn't enough support in the Senate. But that's not Deep State, that's politics & philosophy (and gets to your point about needing more friends.) ... I didn't say oppo was just Dem Party, just that it's not some secret conspiracy cabal that can't be touched & runs govt

          I think Deep State rhetoric is silly. But it gets at a core truth: that the type of change Trump wants to bring about is the antithesis of what most people (not all) who cover and work in DC believe in. Unlike say Obama. That makes Trump's task harder, and they think unfairly so

          Well argued. I prefer saying that w/out the Deep State rhetoric. I think rhetoric matters and this is my main objection, plus I think it makes his job harder, which is great for someone who wants him not to achieve his goals, I suppose.

          But I don't think that makes their anger totally unjustified or misdirected. If 18 months after Obama was elected, serious, official people questioned the validity of his election with no evidence, Democrats would have been furious and understandbly so.

          I rarely question validity of feelings or feelings in general. It's subjective. I try to focus on actions & rhetoric.

          Well, what those people at the convention are expressing is their feelings. I just think the anger and resentment are understandable.
