This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute.

Apparently coordinated and certainly well-timed acts of political warfare in the form of a book by Bob Woodward and a New York Times op.ed. by somebody purportedly working in the senior ranks of the Trump administration, depict the President as crazed and dangerous.

The heroes of both of these much-ballyhooed, purported exposes are those inside the government who, we’re told, are really running things by defying and otherwise subverting our elected Commander-in-Chief.  Suddenly, the elite’s adamant denials of the existence of an unaccountable, so-called “Deep State” have morphed into huzzahs over its success in countermanding the will of the American people and the man they elected to govern them.

Candidate Donald Trump famously promised to “drain the Swamp.” It’s now clear that its denizens inside his administration – both Democrat holdovers and ostensible Republicans – are, instead, working to drain his presidency.
