“With a MAGA-friendly majority on the Supreme Court, scores of allies on the lower federal courts as well in Congress, state legislatures, and governors’ mansions, and a sizable, cultishly loyal, and heavily armed base of political supporters, Trump will have considerable leeway and plenty of backers”, says an article in Foreign Affairs published on June 10, signed by Jon D. Michaels.

The author fears that Trumpism is building its own Deep State, which could be consolidated with Trump’s return to government. Traditional analysts of Western intellectuals tend to characterize countries that do not belong to North America and Western Europe as extremely bureaucratic, corrupt and undemocratic regimes, where internal conspiracies reign as a form of struggle for power. In fact, this characterization perfectly fits the United States of recent decades. The U.S. has one of the largest and certainly the most powerful state bureaucracy in the world. Forget the supposed concerns about LGBT or black people. Those who dominate power in the U.S.A do not care about the rights or lack of rights of these people. They care about more fundamental things, like maintaining strict control of the political regime.
