Elites Love The 'Deep State' Because They Loathe The People
Marco Rubio
7–9 minutes
Donald Trump has the incredible ability to bait his political detractors into becoming exactly what he accuses them of being.
If Trump says liberal elites hate democracy, they invent a radical legal theory to keep him off the ballot. If Trump says Democrats are weaponizing the justice system, they bring novel lawsuits designed to bankrupt him. And if Trump says there are people in government working against the American people, The New York Times brags that “the ‘deep state’ is actually kind of awesome.”
It comes as no surprise that America’s self-proclaimed “newspaper of record” is leading the charge to defend the “deep state.” After all, this is the paper that published an anonymous op-ed in 2018 — two months before the midterm elections — from “a senior [Trump] official” claiming to be “quiet resistance within the administration.”
That, my friends, is the very definition of the “deep state”: a government employee going beyond the bounds of his job description and the Constitution to undermine a democratically elected president.

It's beyond loathe. In their god-complex world of conceit they don't think anyone should exist that doesn't serve them, the holy and righteous true believers.

All sides in DC hate the American people.
Dems love Big Government.
Repubs love Big Business.
The unwashed deploarable masses in the provinces are an inconvenience to their plans.
