ABC News host George Stephanopoulos made headlines on Tuesday when he declared that the so-called “deep state” is “full of patriots.” Stephanopoulos, during an interview on “The View,” discussed his new book “The Situation Room: The Inside Story of Presidents in Crisis” where he interviewed about 100 duty officers from the White House.
Stephanopoulos described the deep state as individuals who come from various government agencies such as the CIA, DIA, Defense Department, and the military. He emphasized that these individuals are dedicated to serving the presidency and the institution, regardless of political parties.
The term “deep state” has been used by President Donald Trump to describe un-elected bureaucrats who he believes are working against his agenda. However, Stephanopoulos’s comments shed a different light on the deep state, portraying its members as dedicated patriots.
In addition to discussing the deep state, Stephanopoulos also weighed in on the current state of the 2024 presidential race, noting that former President Trump is leading President Biden in crucial battleground states. He emphasized the abnormality of the upcoming election, highlighting Trump’s refusal to commit to accepting the results.
Stephanopoulos’s remarks on the deep state and the 2024 election have sparked discussions and debates, emphasizing the importance of the upcoming election and the role of the media in framing the race. His comments serve as a reminder of the challenges and tests that lie ahead for American citizens, the media, and the candidates.
