The president himself doesn\u2019t know since he failed to purge the palace that embarked on the palace coup that has seemingly toppled him. Booting\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/pentagon\/2020\/11\/09\/esper-fired-as-secretary-of-defense\/\">Mark \u2018Raytheon\u2019 Esper<\/a>\u00a0after the fact simply highlights this fact. Now, Mr. Trump will have to put on his thinking cap and grasp the Machiavellian reality of the perverse Washington cesspool he has presided over for nearly four years &#8212; and come up with a plan.<\/p>\n<p>Trump can use his deal-making skills to court the Evil Empire\u2019s titular head, but what sort of deal would that be? And if Mr. Trump truly is the visionary and rogue his base believes he is, then he could disembowel the Deep State with an adroit stroke or two instead. However, with Jared Kushner as his top advisor, that\u2019s unlikely.<\/p>\n<p>But if he chose to, how could Mr. Trump out Washington\u2019s Axis of Evil while avenging himself on the Beltway\u2019s swamp creatures? Well, one major hurdle for Washington\u2019s corrupt coup class is the upcoming government shutdown. The central government runs out of Federal Reserve just-above bog roll \u2013 ie funding again &#8212;\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fedweek.com\/fedweek\/11th-hour-arrives-to-extend-agency-funding-authority-prevent-shutdown\/\">on December 11th<\/a>. The president must reliably engage Mitch McConnell in withholding any new funding agreement, and since McConnell\u2019s position is secure there is little motivation for him to provide favors now, especially when Trump is supremely vulnerable.<\/p>\n<p>During the pandemic a Trump government shutdown would certainly generate massive public and major media outrage. Likewise, Mr. Trump has been most interested in keeping his promises to the people, so a government shutdown is unlikely to be in the cards.<\/p>\n<p>Another option, Trump could issue executive orders to end the endless US-initiated conflicts in Afghanistan, Syria, and Iraq. In such a scenario, Congress would have to scramble to keep its wars going. However the new Zombie-head, major media, and US congress\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.defenseone.com\/policy\/2020\/07\/unconventional-tactic-becomes-congresss-go-weapon-against-troop-withdrawal\/166880\/\">would certainly howl to the moon<\/a>\u00a0all the while. Even so, Trump could leave office with some satisfaction, knowing that he did what he promised to do, regardless of opposition from the warfare state cancer infesting the Beltway.<\/p>\n<p>The United States\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thesun.co.uk\/news\/6745786\/nato-contributions-country-who-pay-most-least-2-percent-gdp-target-trump\/\">funds about 70 percent<\/a>\u00a0of NATO\u2019s Cold War dinosaur existence too, with member states contributing the rest. Trump\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.usnews.com\/news\/national-news\/articles\/2020-07-29\/esper-contradicts-trump-in-announcing-troop-withdrawal-from-germany\">jousted with Esper<\/a>\u00a0over NATO, their most significant point of difference. Now the president can defund NATO with an emergency executive order \u2013 perhaps on a government shutdown basis? \u2013 at a stroke. Like ending America\u2019s endless wars, the new Zombie leader (Biden) major media, and US congress\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.marketwatch.com\/story\/nato-chief-addresses-congress-after-meeting-with-trump-2019-04-03\">would howl to the moon<\/a>\u00a0all the while\u2026 and ditto on Trump\u2019s satisfaction.<\/p>\n<p>Now think of all the secrets Trump knows on so many issues, from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/2020\/10\/14\/email-reveals-how-hunter-biden-introduced-ukrainian-biz-man-to-dad\/\">Huntergate<\/a>\u00a0to Russiagate. Trump knows\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/hilltv\/rising\/413095-papadopoulos-argues-he-may-have-been-entrapped\">who setup George Papadopoulos<\/a>\u00a0and why. He knows about\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/themoscowproject.org\/dossier\/\">the Steele Dossier<\/a>. Trump knows the Deep State\u2019s secrets and where the dirty laundry is hidden. If Trump truly were a visionary &#8211; as well as a rogue (not to mention patriot) &#8211; he could easily out the dirty laundry in one go. But that may be too much, creating risk for himself and his family. A more practical idea would be to covertly get the information out for &#8220;plausible denial&#8221; release later. All that\u2019s left would be to admit nothing, deny everything, and make counter-accusations.<\/p>\n<p>In such interesting times, Mr. Trump has other options &#8211; even seemingly frivolous ones. He could out the facts on Hillary\u2019s emails and the related alleged FBI cover-up; or undermine any deal the Zombie\u2019s regime intends to make with Ghislaine Maxwell in order to protect powerful interests. Trump could even release all the documents, unredacted, on the John F Kennedy assassination, showing that elements within Langley\u2019s unconstitutional\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cia.gov\/library\/readingroom\/docs\/CIA-RDP90-00965R000100560003-0.pdf\">Criminal Intelligence Agency<\/a>\u00a0were involved and that the assassination was not just the work of a \u201clone nut\u201d who got lucky.<\/p>\n<p>In brief, Trump\u2019s options re outing the Deep State are virtually limitless. Washington\u2019s detritus and the grifters who infest the Beltway\u2019s infernal swamp \u2013 like Biden \u2013 are of course aware of that, too. So there is a good chance some sort of deal will be cut for Trump\u2019s graceful exit, especially if\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/homenews\/campaign\/525144-trump-has-told-advisers-hes-thinking-about-running-in-2024-report\">rumors are true<\/a>\u00a0that Trump will run again in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>If not\u2026 then watch out below!<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ronpaulinstitute.org\/archives\/featured-articles\/2020\/november\/11\/trump-must-out-the-deep-state\/\">http:\/\/www.ronpaulinstitute.org\/archives\/featured-articles\/2020\/november\/11\/trump-must-out-the-deep-state\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-36531","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36531","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=36531"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/36531\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=36531"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=36531"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.co\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=36531"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
