I'd like to (and sometimes do) believe that Trump & Co's apparent 
incompetence and general foolishness reflects a lack of deep conspiracy 
ON the Right, as well as his continued survival (not shot, poisoned, or 
pushed from the open door of Marine 1) suggests there is no Deep State.

On the other hand, as I always ask conspiracy theorists, "what if his 
presence in this role *serves* the Deep State?"

While many (most) conspiracists might applaud Trump's ascendency and 
consider it a victory over their favorite bogeymen, I can't see anything 
that would suggest that if such bogeymen actually do exist that they 
wouldn't be *using* this train-wreck for their own purposes.   And is 
there a singular monolithic bogeyman called "Deep State" or is it 
factionated into many subgroups who are right now in their evil lair 
fighting over whether or when or how to "neutralize" or "liquidate" 
Agent Orange?  In this parallel universe, how many times has one agent 
of the deep state interfered with the Sniper in the Clocktower...  Spy 
vs Spy style?

The *left-wing* CS types who are sure he's in Putin's pocket don't seem 
to recognize that Putin (and many others with less profile) might be 
using Trump (and others with less profile) as blunt instruments... just 
softening us up by stirring us up... with little if any regard for the 
specific puppeteering often attributed to them?  While Trump's attempted 
withdrawal of troops from Syria *might* have been a response to direct 
Putin-Whispering or Erdogan-Whispering, it might have just been a whim 
based on his motivated but under-informed style of isolationism.
