      It's silly to say we have a single, monolithic "Deep State," but you don't have to be a Trump partisan to find it dangerous & unsustainable for a significant segment of the intelligence & national security bureaucracy to be dedicated to taking down the Commander-in-Chief.

      “It’s silly to say criminals should get away with crimes, but you really have to wonder about all those masses of government officials when they feel empowered to go after gangsters, dangerous criminals, treasonous actors, and threats to the rule of law.”

      You think the power of people with broad access to surveillance to use anonymous, often unverifiable leaks to hobble representative government is without risks? It is a very dangerous dynamic. It is not even remotely the case that it can be confined to the truth, nor has it been.

      Sure, now you sound like a liberal. The point is that all of these situations can be bent to suit the needs of the one making the argument. But, sometimes there is *simple right and wrong.* Deep throat acted “illegally,” but yet do you think he helped the country? Do you?

      A lot of our politics ended up getting poisoned by how Watergate played out. It was absolutely a double-edged sword.

          I'm not buying that reasoning. "Poison?" How about "accountability" ?

          You're assuming every attempt to follow in his footsteps since then has been 100% accurate & on the level.
