IMHO they tried and in some cases completely took over local and statewide politics through elections and judicial appointments with the help of Federalist Society, Heritage Foundation and other so-called conservative think tanks.

The Deep State has always been the ultra conservative power mongers and their puppets.

Remember how Trump liked to read The Snake when running against Hilary? He is and was the snake, period. But there are whole dens of snakes operating behind the scenes … when the orange idiot dies that won’t be the end of it. Not until the dens are found, doused in gasoline and set on fire (metaphorically speaking, of course).
