“Hard to believe the Deep State would unfairly prosecute someone who is doing their bidding. Must be he’s guilty as sin” – The current top comment on the Breitbart article “John Castro, Who Fought to Keep Trump off Ballot, Arrested on Federal Tax Charges,” posted early Thursday morning.
We can allow that maybe some version of the “Deep State” mythology is true, that there probably really is a deeply entrenched redoubt at the highest echelons of the intel community that’s highly resistant to any sort of accountability and blah blah blah. There are plausible theories out there.
What we don’t get is why the fuck they would send some incompetent tax cheat who failed to show proper standing in no less than 33 states to challenge Trump’s eligibility for the ballot under the 14th Amendment when they probably have half a dozen different ways to make it look like the fat bastard had a fatal heart attack while playing golf. It doesn’t have to be as complicated as these assholes want to make it. And if there really is a rogue power structure in the US government that’s lasted a dozen or more presidential administrations then why would they give a shit who wins the next election, especially since he was too incompetent to dismantle them the first time around?
