Wire services are reporting that "drain the swamp" and "deep state" are phrases that were developed by Cambridge Analytica and market tested back among Facebook users to see how much traction they would get. I don't think I ever heard the phrases before about 2015.

I was afraid to open this thread knowing how some will read and respond to the title. I'm surprised it hasn't gone off the tracks yet.

I don't know what everybody else was thinking,...but *I* was thinking that Hillary views me as deplorable and irredeemable.

Where does Deep State come from?
The origins of the term Deep State are from the secretive Turkish network known as derin devlet. This group was founded in 1923 by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk with the purpose of undertaking clandestine acts to preserve the current governmental structure. These acts included coups and private assassinations of figures who were seen as hostile to the establishment; they were particularly targeted toward the press, communists, Kurds, and other dissenters.
Deep State has since come to mean any unelected “shadow government” operating behind the scenes of a democracy. If true, this would mean that the democratic process is a façade. Deep State has traditionally been used by the United States press in reference to the governments of countries like Russia and Turkey, but starting in the 2010s, it has increasingly been used to describe the United States government by those who favor conspiracy theories.

Read the last line in your quote. It describes many here on the fire.

I guess I'm shallow...I seem to find myself on the opposite side of whistleblowers when they look like this...he does look like someone screaming for attention. ![[Linked Image]](http://i2.cdn.turner.com/money/dam/assets/180319201708-facebook-cambridge-analytica-christopher-wylie-00001804-1280x720.jpg)

A moment to check and you'd have found that "drain the swamp" in reference to Washington politics is a phrase which, like "deep state", has been around since before Trump was even born. Ronald Reagan and Pat Buchanan used it, among many others.

Deep State? Drain the swamp?
It's all part of the Priory of Zion's plot. You have to go back to the reign of Dagobert II , Mary Magdelene and Joseph of Aramathea, to keep the child of Jesus Christ safe.
