The most powerful branch of today’s government is the Fourth: the permanent federal bureaucracy that is nowhere mentioned in the Constitution. The Trump administration can best be viewed, perhaps, as a struggle to the death between American voters and the federal employees who are paid to serve them.
The constant media drumbeat of anti-Trump propaganda is, in many instances, taking its’ toll. The question is not; “Will the Trump presidency survive?”, but, more accurately and more darkly; “Will the Republic survive?” And, perhaps, more to the point, will the majority of Americans just shrug and accept what they have been given?
