Says Spiked:
There has been a putsch in Italy. A bloodless putsch, with no guns or jackboots, but a putsch nonetheless. The president’s vetoing of the finance minister put forward by the populist parties that won a huge number of votes in the General Election in March represents a grave assault on the democratic will. It is a technocratic coup, an EU-influenced, big-business-pleasing attempt to isolate and weaken the popular anti-Brussels sentiment that has swept Italy. Indeed, it has brought about the collapse of the talks to form a new populist government and made it necessary to hold fresh elections. Let’s be honest about what has happened here: March’s democratic election has essentially been voided by technocrats who care more about Euro financiers than they do about the ordinary people of Italy.In Britain the same technocratic elite insist that a second Brexit referendum must be held. This is a classic Euro-Elite tactic, last used in Ireland the previous decade when they rejected joining the EU. Keep voting until they get it right.
Here in America the elite's war on Trump has taken two forms.
From the right, we have #NeverTrump Politicians who are finding themselves out of jobs*, and the pundit class.**
From the left we have the Mueller Fake Probe, which has turned up nothing on Russian collusion, and the Obama administration's use of the FBI and NSA to spy on the Trump Campaign.
Deep State indeed.
Nixon: paranoid with good reason.
*Jeff Flake, Bob Corker, etc.
**William Kristol, Jen Rubin (I threw up a little writing her name), et al.
