Template talk:Deep State

here's my nomination for inclusion: SSCI. RobS^{Deep Six the Deep State!}

Adding now!--Andy Schlafly (talk) 22:21, 13 August 2019 (EDT)

Would A Republic Not an Empire, Pat Buchanan's book, fit? The title obviously is a rip-off or squeal to Phyllis Schlafly's book. RobS^{Deep Six the Deep State!} 13:52, 15 August 2019 (EDT)

These books (which don't have CP articles) might also be good to include: [1][2][3] --1990'sguy (talk) 14:40, 15 August 2019 (EDT)

I stumbled on this from Politico the other day, but haven't had time to vet it. RobS^{Deep Six the Deep State!} 14:47, 15 August 2019 (EDT)

Can we add John Bolton and Mike Pompeo to the list of "People?"--Geopolitician (talk) 17:58, 3 September 2019 (EDT)

I wouldn't add either. At worst, their only minor players because they are conservative on certain issues. We should reserve mentions on the template only for the worst and most important members. Also, I think Bolton has done a good job on issues such as unilateralism and international organizations. --1990'sguy (talk) 20:17, 3 September 2019 (EDT)

I don't consider either to be "minor players." They are front in center in the ongoing conspiracy to expand our involvement in the Middle East on behalf of the petrodollar scam. However, I can see where you're coming from in terms of the big picture. If I added them, then perhaps I would be a hypocrite to leave out every other post-9/11 SoS and NSC.--Geopolitician (talk) 20:32, 3 September 2019 (EDT)

Also, any specific reason why Acheson and Marshall are on the template? --Geopolitician (talk) 18:24, 3 September 2019 (EDT)

Acheson I'll reserve comment on for now, and we're still dealing with Marshall's "agrarian reformers" now. Although he is not mentioned by name, the globalist Marshall plan is cited here (MAGAnomics#Background) as the reason for the driving need for modern reform. Admittedly, there is much room for expansion on these themes. RobS^{De Plorabus Unum} 01:18, 4 September 2019 (EDT)

When you read those first two sentences,

The post-World War II Marshall Plan was set up to allow Europe and Asia to place tariffs on exported American industrial products. Those tariffs were used by the EU and Japan to rebuild their infrastructure after a devastating war. However, there was never a built in mechanism to end the tariffs,

noq you can understand the context of Trump's statement, "I am the chosen one" to end the imbalance. RobS^{De Plorabus Unum} 01:24, 4 September 2019 (EDT)
