Suddenly everywhere I am hearing this pathetic excuse of "the deep state." You see, "big government" was a very unpopular thing with libertarians...until their candidates gained control. Now suddenly, everything that is wrong with the government is attributable to "the deep state" , which insinuates that there is some sort of liberal (a word which literally means "free" ) stubborn element that is so interwoven, it has "infected" the government. See, this will be their argument for the next two years, until the democrats win back the house and senate--and then everything will be the democrats fault for "obstructing" Trump's agenda (just like the republicans did for the last half of Obama's presidency.)
There is no shortage of hypocrisy or ridiculousness with these right wing incompetent f@cks.
Hannity will school them all about the "deep state" and they will echo it like good little sheep.
Peter1469 already has.
