The Undermining of Trump

Ray DiLorenzo

From the moment the press covered Trump and Melania’s descent down the escalator in 2015 to announce his candidacy for president, Donald Trump has been undermined. The deep state, district court judges who think they can make executive branch decisions, our intelligence services, military desk jockeys, and just about the entire governmental power structure have seen DT as a threat to their rice bowl.

President Trump intends to create peace in Europe and the Middle East. If you think that shouldn’t be a problem, think again.

President Trump has an obstacle on his hands. He is making a significant effort to create a peaceful planet, but NATO, the European Union (EU), particularly the UK, France, and Germany, the Democrat Party, our very own neocons, the media, and even high-ups at Fox News Corp. are actively working to undermine those efforts and foster an atmosphere of conflict. Subversion even extends against Netanyahu. The New York Times reported that Israel has made Iran strike plans and could attack Iranian nuclear sites within hours. Netanyahu, in response, has quickly said it’s ‘fake news.’

Everyone should understand the kind of people we have in Congress. In 1996, Nancy Pelosi angrily argued in Congress that our tariffs were excessively low, that we were being exploited, and that trade with China was only creating 170,000 jobs here, while it was creating 10 million jobs in China. Now they scream the opposite. The oligarchs of the left chant, “No to oligarchy.” They are whores.

The Democrat Party and the neocons, like Generals Keane and Kellogg, Lynn Cheney, Lindsay Graham, and others, are not helping Trump. They push war like it is always in our best interest. It’s not the soldiers who engage in combat but the autocrats who profit from it. Their main principle is ‘whatever works’ with no morality.

The mainstream media (MSM) is collaborating with the Deep State to undermine Trump’s peace initiatives, treating the current situation as if it were a game and not caring about the lives of millions of people.

Additionally, the Democrats are criticizing every move that the president makes. The Dems are fighting for their very existence, so they are without principle. Why anyone would want Trump’s job is one of life’s mysteries.

Even in the most powerful of countries, intelligence services can be sketchy. They can be incomplete, inaccurate, filtered, or even withheld. Allies and the media can sabotage your efforts, depending on their agenda.

Anyone who has seen the movie The Sum of All Fears knows that it is about what can happen when world leaders are fed bogus information and make false assumptions while certifiably insane people attempt to manipulate nations into war with each other.

And bogus information is flowing.

President Trump recently criticized Putin (5/26/25) as “gone absolutely crazy” for conducting high-precision strikes against Ukraine. What Trump did not know at the time was that the strikes were a response to Putin’s helicopter (with Putin inside) being targeted by a swarm of drones (335) while he was visiting the Kursk border region on 5/20/25. (Newsweek)

Newsweek reported it as an attempted assassination. Others claim that a drone attack from Kyiv caught Putin in the middle. It makes no matter. Six days after the near assassination attempt, Trump still did not know of the incident. Could you please let us know the whereabouts of our Biden-appointed Russian Ambassador, Lynne Tracy?

The Russians hit military targets: drone production sites, warehouses, airfields, radar stations, and ammo depots. Putin’s near miss escaped Trump’s intelligence briefings for nearly a week. This is what’s crazy.

What would the consequences have been if a drone had hit Putin’s helicopter and killed him?

Just in the past several days, more than 2,300 Ukrainian drones have been intercepted, many heading toward Moscow and its suburbs. Civilian targets?

It gets worse. German Chancellor Merz has offered to help Ukraine develop its own long-range missile production facility to hit Russia. In other words, Merz wants to help Ukraine build targets for the Russian Air Force deep inside the country. And if Russia attacks, and they will, killing a dozen or so Germans that happen to be there will undoubtedly accelerate war between NATO and Russia.

The European Union has agreed to give Ukraine 12 billion euros to continue the war. Europe has decided to extend the war for at least another 5 years to give the EU time to rebuild their military-industrial complex. The people of Ukraine mean little.

Half-truths could potentially draw Trump into aggressive action and possibly war against Russia. Bush 43 was pushed into war with Iraq based on false information. The final report from the CIA in 2005 was that there were no WMDs in Iraq to justify the 2003 invasion. What do you tell the families of those soldiers who were lost? That is why President Trump is so adamant about not getting into any more needless wars. People die! Families suffer irreparable harm. Children go without a father or mother.

Contrary to what many pro-Ukraine special interests say, Russia does not want war with the West. Russia knows too well what war brings. We lost 407,316 service members in WW2. Russia lost between 25 and 31 million people, at least 16 million of whom were civilians.

Does anyone believe that Russia wants a repeat of that?

This is not an effort to support Russia but an attempt to understand them. President Trump needs to make sure he has people on his staff who understand Russia and its people. Anything less will mean confusion, ignorance, and peril.

Intelligence services can operate independently and often include individuals who are eager to protect their sources of information. That is why, often, law enforcement walks softly. Law enforcement can destroy sources of information that intelligence has spent years cultivating.

Another factor is the sharing of information. Does the FBI know what the CIA knows or what the Pentagon knows? The solution for such issues seems to be the Fusion Center, where agencies are together, gathering, deciphering, and sharing information.

A natural problem with intelligence gathering is the time factor. Can an intelligence agency gather the information, decipher it, confirm it, and then pass it on to the right people in time to effect a satisfactory solution?

As President Trump continues to chart his course through the complexities of governance, the interaction of intelligence and strategy remains foremost in crafting effective solutions to the challenges he faces. With various agencies and agendas often working to undermine his objectives, Trump must navigate this landscape while staying true to his vision for the country. Essential to his mission is the imperative of cleaning house, ensuring that those who do not put America first are held accountable. In this turbulent political environment, one can only pray for guidance and protection, both for President Trump and for the nation he serves.
