Tr*ckin' and F*ckin' all the way to tha

The question is absurd. There is no deep state. The United States is too politically, economically, and geographically decentralized to allow anyone to seize power. The armed forces are bombarded with messages about the importance of civilian control on a day-to-day basis and institutionally distrust one another too much. No one in the political or media elite have an interest in seeing a coup succeeded. The public would not accept it.
