(19,240 posts)in this country will realize that they have been fucked over and they will quietly work behind the scenes to undo the mess without tipping their hand. The U.S. military and the FBI were "Deep Throat." They used the WaPo as their medium. At first glance, "Deep Throat II" appears to be just the NSA and the CIA, but I am pretty sure that the U.S. military is also involved just as I am sure Putin has told Trump to offer the military the sun and moon in order to keep them on his side. However, the U.S. military takes a very dim view of treason. Also, they do not want to get involved in a proxy ground war in Syria (designed to strengthen Russian control by allowing Russia's puppet to solidify power under the banner of "Drive out the Yanks!" And they really, truly do not want to get involved in the same kind of war with Iran (for the same purpose). So, I am at least 85% sure that the U.S. military is already working behind the scenes feeding info to its own news outlets GE's MSNBC and Newsweek as well as the NYT and WaPo.
In other words, you are already witnessing a coup, American style. Trump is on his way out.
