You'd need a constitutional amendment altering the 1st.

All the money spent on politics is a symptom, not the disease. Even if you COULD restrict free speech you're still ignoring the root cause.

What a bunch of garbage. He starts off ok but then it’s clear as day that he’s talking out of his arse and doesn’t know shite.

“Paul Ryan’s tax cuts” is one bs statement out of many. What a joke.

OP is correct and thus the reason I will never vote again.

I 100% understand how you feel as I feel the same. But please whatever you do VOTE even if it probably doesn’t mean shite since they stop counting at 2 am to bring in thousands of fake ballots. If by some miracle we’re able to stop it then we’ll need your vote. So please vote

Trump never went after the major departments of DC or their top leadership.

Not only that, he appointed that very same top leadership.

The only way to reduce the "deep state" is to shut down much of government and bureaucracy.

I am 100000% for it.

It will take a person who runs not on the platform of tearing much of the power structure in DC down. Then does it anyway.
A subtle first term getting as many of their people in high places as possible. Make every promise to the fatcats and powered elites to get a second term. Around here would look like a sellout if leaked. Then on election for second term go full on audits of each and every dept and chop the heads off those depts you don't have any control over. Then don't fly or leave the WH for a good while.

Simple

I don't think Trump is going to "break up the deep state", whatever that is. We can't even define the "deep state". It is some many things in so many areas. It's not just one entity.

As Trump likes to point out, "There are a lot of bad people in Washington, DC."

The deep state is pockets of corruption. The deep state is elected officials who are acting for personal power and wealth, rather than for the good of our country. The deep state is elected officials who use our bureaucracies to control their political oponents and constituents. At the same time there are bureaucrats who control our policitians by using both a carrot and a stick. The deep state is huge corporate donors who have an agenda and form symbiotic relationships with Congressmen.

I am happy to have someone who is willing to say what nobody else will say, and that is to expose the deep state in all of it's manifestations.

At this point the likes of Trump can only temporarily delay what the deep state has planned, which is the complete and total control of the 95% by the 5% elite. Only when the nation and/or world hits absolute rock bottom will the people do what is necessary to dismantle the deep state. Unfortunately I can only see a very violent end to it. Maybe not in my lifetime but probably in my children’s lifetime, or certainly in my grandchildren’s.

And by deep state, I’m not only talking about the U.S. government, but all western governments.
