Heading into Election Day, the folks over at MSNBC and their mainstream media pals were convinced there was no way Donald Trump could defeat Kamala Harris. They’d spent years building this anti-Trump echo chamber, patting each other on the back and doubling down on the idea that America was rallying around Harris. But when the votes rolled in, reality hit them like a freight train. Trump not only took the Electoral College by storm; he beat her in the popular vote too.
That was enough to throw the usual smug MSNBC crowd into full-on meltdown mode. Within minutes of Trump’s victory, Chris Hayes was already hinting at calling in the “Deep State.” Yep, you heard that right. Instead of trying to make sense of what just happened, Hayes went straight into panic mode, claiming that “democracy between elections” (whatever that means) was now somehow essential to keep Trump in check.
“The House we’re not going to know for weeks,” Hayes stammered, “but it’s possible that Donald Trump and Republicans will have a trifecta, as they did in 2016. In which case, the bull-work against whatever overreach there could be… is the work of civil society, it’s the work of the fourth estate, it’s the work of citizens… all of that is super important stuff. We’ve seen it before.” If it sounds a little off, that’s because it was. Hayes was basically waving the Deep State flag in front of the camera, hinting that it’s up to unelected bureaucrats to stand in Trump’s way.
Now, let’s be clear—this whole thing is just another reminder of how far the left is willing to go to take down Trump. They’ve thrown the book at him. They’ve tried to impeach, prosecute, and convict him. They’ve unleashed every attack they could think of to keep him out of power, and yet here he is, winning a second time. And this time, they don’t even have the popular vote argument to cling to.
With the American people making their voices heard loud and clear, MSNBC and the left have run out of ammo, and now they’re saying the quiet part out loud. They’re openly hinting that the Deep State should step in—essentially suggesting it’s time to bypass the will of the people. This isn’t just about Trump; it’s about every voter who supported him and what we’re willing to stand for.
Hayes’s comments are an ominous reminder that the left isn’t going to make this easy. They’ve shown time and again they’ll stop at nothing to keep Trump out of the White House. Trump might have won fair and square, but it’s clear that some won’t accept it. So, while Trump prepares for his next term, he—and every one of his supporters—should keep their guard up. Because for the Deep State, this fight is likely far from over.
