Is a Deep State TrumpWorld Grab-Bag a Thing?

Fox News’ very awful Jesse Watters had on the Trump Administration’s even more awful KellyAnne Conway, and together they managed to perform a duet on the theme of there being a coup attempt on President Trump, and how, boo hoo, everything was rigged against Trump from the very beginning. I love this kind of argument. Trump was trying to soften the blow of his possible loss in the election all through October 2016 by crying “Rigged!’ whenever he could. And then he won the electoral college despite losing the popular vote by 3 million votes, got sworn in, and is still in office. It doesn’t seems all that “coup-y”.

What has happened, though, is a recent obfuscation campaign on the part of Trump associates and supporters to detract from the Special Counsel’s investigation, claiming that the FBI investigation that it follows on was tainted by partisans. This strikes me as really weird. Comey was a Republican, Mueller’s a Republican, as of a year or more ago, we understood that the FBI has a lot of people who were not Friends of Hill. Since when was the FBI or law enforcement in general a hotbed of subversives who want to overthrow a Republican president?

Except when that president is engaged in a potential criminal conspiracy to undermine national security. See, I can get why law enforcement professionals would deeply care about that.
