I agree that the mainstream media in the US is 100% on the side of the powerful. And I also agree that the political bipartisan establishment, including unelected officials such as high-level bureaucrats and party advisors have basically been running the country for the last few decades, as well as before that.

Now, I don't think you have explained yet how you think that comes to be, but let me explain to you how I think that happened: I think they are all essentially playing for the same team, because they all want one thing to get reelected (or keep their jobs): To make the people happy who support their claim on power. And that is the ultra wealthy elite, consisting of the leadership of the top maybe 100 corporations and maybe the top 1 million people in the US, mostly the top 10,000.

This very small group of people is able to basically control who gets elected, by choosing who to donate to. And they all individually decide to donate to people who give them the unconstitutional wars they want, the money they want, support for their ruthless and dangerous Wall Street practices, etc. I don't buy that Hillary secretely loves Mitch McConnell and they always plan their next pretend-conflicts together, but rather that both genuinely want to get as much power as possible, and to get that they follow the same policy agenda

And of course breaking up sex trafficking is very good regardless of whether it's rich and powerful people doing the trafficking or thugs from the streets, and I don't really see why the rich and powerful would be disproportionally interested in pedophilia, so your claim that the deep state does that doesn't sound believable to me. But that doesn't matter because we're both for police action against that anyway

I think we agree that the people in power don't want what real Americans want. They bribe people to do what they want. Now, once Trump gets the deep state out of Washington, what policy agenda would he pursue, or what should he pursue according to you? I'd say clean financing of elections would be a great idea to make sure the deep state never comes back, certainly not through the electoral route. It's harder to make sure unelected bureaucrats don't get power, but to make sure that candidates only get money from for example "democracy vouchers", where people get a 50$ voucher to spend on candidates as they see fit but all other donations are banned, that would greatly reduce their power. What do you think?

you made some good points , the problem we face right now is that some powerful groups want to push us all into abyss in order to save their own butts . That must be stopped , later we'll talk about other things
