Dismantling the Deep State: Steve Bannon’s Blueprint for Trump’s Bold Return to Power

On Friday’s WarRoom Steve Bannon laid out a bold plan for reshaping the U.S. government with Donald Trump’s return to office. His focus? Dismantling the “Deep State” and cutting back the “Administrative State” that he claims has fueled policies detrimental to Americans. According to Bannon, this transition isn’t just essential; it’s now or never.

A Call to “Deconstruct the Administrative State”

Bannon emphasizes that the current government bureaucracy, or the Administrative State, was never part of the Founding Fathers’ vision. This vast web of unelected officials and agencies has taken on powers beyond its intended scope. Bannon describes it as “a massive bureaucracy that the founders and framers never envisioned.” He argues that under Trump’s leadership, this framework should be dismantled, cutting down government size and limiting its interference in daily American life. “You’ve got to take out programs, cut down the Leviathan,” Bannon asserts.

Russ Vought’s Role: The Man With a Plan

Bannon lauds Russ Vought, former director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), as a key player for this transition. Vought, known for his meticulous budget cuts, stands out for Bannon as a “deconstructor” of the government apparatus. “Russ Vought has flowcharts, waterfalls of data. He shows how we don’t need endless programs,” Bannon says, emphasizing Vought’s detailed approach to managing government spending and curbing excessive control.

Trump’s Experience: A Veteran Against the Deep State

Bannon views Trump as a seasoned warrior prepared to handle the pressures of a second term. He highlights Trump’s energy and determination, even under intense legal scrutiny, saying, “He’s faced 92 charges, gone through court battles, and still he’s the people’s choice.” Bannon suggests that Trump’s experience dealing with these challenges has made him uniquely qualified to tackle the Deep State.
