| | ::::Let's look at the issues around Kushner and Hunter Biden momentarily. Senior Presidential Advisor Kushner, without a security clearance, could read classified material handed to him by someone with a clearance, like Trump or somebody else on staff. But Kushner then is limited in being able to communicate directly with the originators of the classified material, or they with him. This creates a massive inefficiency, which everyone in the Washington bureaucracy is aware of and laughs about.

But the Deep Staters who were in charge of security clearances were too afflicted by TDS to even consider the idea that they could (indirectly) benefit from Kushner's agenda.

| | ::::::In Kushner's case, he read classified material that he ordinarily would not be entitled to, containing the names of contact people in the Israeli and Bahrain governments (with bio sketches, relevant information on issues, etc.), then had to contact them personally and direct with the authority of the president. He had to use his own staff (and maybe some of Trump's) outside the regular bureaucracy (CIA, State Dept, White House, [[National Security Council]], etc) to negotiate and arrange the Abraham Accords.

| | ::::::The Abraham Accords are exclusively the work of Trump, Kushner, and their staffs. The entities mentioned, like the State Dept, NSC, etc., played no part whatsoever. While they likely knew of the negotiations, which is ordinarily their turf, to their credit they did not interfere or try to upset negotiations. They probably figured it could always be undone anyway in a couple of years. They let Trump have one big win.

| | + | :::::::Actually, no. The ''real'' reason the Deep State didn't interfere is because Trump was playing right into its hands. By brokering peace between Israel and the Gulf states, Trump was paving the way for a future anti-Iranian coalition. And since the Deep State wants to dismantle Iran (like it wants to dismantle Russia and China), it had no reason to oppose the Abraham Accords.--[[User:Geopolitician|Geopolitician]] ([[User talk:Geopolitician|talk]]) 14:58, February 16, 2023 (EST) |
