DISINFO: Trump wants to break the back of the Deep State but it could respond like it did with Kennedy

SUMMARY

Is Trump following Kennedy's path? Then the reaction of the "Deep State" may be shocking.

They are sitting everywhere, in the State Department, in special structures, they falsified the elections in 2020 and ousted Trump, they drew up 100 or 300 charges against Trump, for some 300 years in prison, and yes, they shot him in July and so on. This is a real war. Today, the US may face the danger of civil war.

Trump wants to break the back of the "Deep State"-the stronghold of the Democratic Party. But one must be prepared for the fact that the "Deep State" may react. As it did with Kennedy. Kennedy's fate is Trump's fate, but he approached it. This is how things are in America today.

RESPONSE

Conspiracy theory, not backed by evidence, promoting several recurring pro-Kremlin disinformation narratives about secret elites, the US Deep State, fraud in the 2020 US presidential elections, and the assassination attempt on Trump, aimed at discrediting the US and liberal democracies.

The 'Deep State' narrative seeks to question the legitimacy of democracy and Western institutions in the US. It promotes the view that US presidents and other public officials are just window-dressing, whereas decision-making lies in the hands of another group of non-elected people.

Promoting conspiracy theories is a frequent pro-Kremlin technique to sow mistrust in institutions in democratic countries.

Pro-Kremlin outlets previously used an identical conspiracy to discredit Kamala Harris’ candidacy: Kamala Harris is a Deep State figurehead and Kamala Harris lost because the true masters of the US did not want to escalate the situation.

Furthermore, multiple disinformation claims alleged that the Deep State placed a bet against Donald Trump and even attempted to assassinate him: "Deep State" will likely try again to get Trump out of the way; Deep State failed to kill Trump, could try again; “Deep state” is undoubtedly behind the attempted assassination of Trump.

There is no evidence that the US 2020 presidential elections were fraudulent. Allegations of electoral fraud have been dismissed more than 60 times by different US courts and judges, both Republican and Democrat, due to lack of any significant evidence, including the Supreme Court on two occasions.

There were extensive investigations about possible fraud, and most claims turn out to be unfounded. This unprecedented scrutiny led to the conclusion that the elections on 3 November 2020 were the most secure elections in the history of the United States.

See our analysis of how Kremlin disinformation targets US elections, as well as other examples of disinformation claims alleging the US Deep State’s control over political leadership and political processes: American 'Deep State' will continue a hybrid war against Russia through Joe Biden; Joe Biden's withdrawal shows US ruled by Deep State; Deep State kept Biden in power for war with Russia, then dumped him; groups in the shadow dictated the outcome of US presidential elections; global elites overthrew Donald TrumpAmerica is ruled by an illegitimate tyrannical regime which stole the US election in 2020; the assassination of John F. Kennedy and 9/11 attacks were organised by Deep State; JFK was assassinated by Israel which controls US deep state.
