No. It's not. It's a real possibility. But one people like Kagan should not be permitted to disavow some responsibility for.
Did you read my piece, including the long bit where he talked abt power of presidency? https://www.emptywheel.net/2016/05/19/imperialist-robert-kagan-disavows-the-bureaucracy-of-fascism-he-championed/ … @mla1396

Ah see, this is the (my) problem with Twitter. Didn't realize your tweets were ancillary to your piece. That said ...
-
... Your penultimate paragraph is to me the Essential Point, even if it's Kagan making it.
-
Kagan laid out a plan to dismantle the awesome Presidential power he is so afraid of? Where? That's not his point.
@mla1396 -
No, I mean the point you are not denying about Trump being a huge threat. That's his point, and he's absolutely right ...
-
... Even if the tools through which Trump would do his damage are largely of Kagans creation.

I agree w you that "Deep State" is too dangerous in general for anyone to wield. But especially Trump. Can't lose sight of that.
-
Domestic security apparatus too dangerous. Actually think he might do less damage overseas, in part bc less knowledgeable.
