OPINION| STEVEN AHLE| President Trump was being interviewed by Sharyl Attkisson the other day and during the conversation President Trump told her that he has a chance to break up the Deep State. Perhaps he does, but only if he is reelected.

Fortunately, he seems to have gotten over that and recent appointments have been solid.
If he gets a second term he will have made over theIr judiciary, thus making it harder for Democrats looking for a rubber stamp for their many progressive lawsuits.

In an article published Saturday at Just the News, Attkisson reports on Trump’s comments about the Deep State:
President Trump says he is making inroads in taming Washington’s permanent bureaucracy, which he likes to call the “deep state.”
