  The idea of a State within a State is not entirely imaginary. With the political rise of Trump, the spectre of a deep state has become a bugbear in Right-wing circles

The article discusses the concept of the "deep state" in the United States, portraying it as a network of influential bureaucrats, intelligence operatives, and other government officials who are believed to wield significant power behind the scenes, often in opposition to elected officials. It explores how this notion has gained traction, particularly among conservative circles, as a way to explain perceived resistance to policies of former President Donald Trump. The piece delves into historical precedents of bureaucratic resistance, like during the Nixon era, and examines how the deep state theory has evolved, especially with the rise of social media and conspiracy theories. It also touches on the implications of such beliefs, suggesting that while there might be elements of truth in the existence of entrenched bureaucratic interests, the term "deep state" often serves as a catch-all for any opposition to political agendas, thereby oversimplifying complex governmental dynamics and potentially undermining trust in democratic institutions.
