Trump’s truths are aimed at American Deep State: Scholar

US Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump is targeting the American Deep State – a loosely organized cabal who has taken power away from the official government – by blurting out various unspeakable truths, American scholar Dr. Kevin Barrett says.  

Dr. Barrett, a founding member of the Scientific Panel for the Investigation of 9/11 and founding member of Truth Jihad, told Press TV on Saturday that Trump might not win the November presidential election, but he is certainly shaking things up in Washington, DC, by exposing the rigged political system.

The analyst said “as we approach the final weeks before the American presidential election, Donald Trump, the Republican candidate, is continuing to blurt out various unspeakable truths that are normally suppressed from the mainstream American political discourse. And I think this is a good thing.”

“Trump famously made some amazing statements during the Republican primaries, such as George W. Bush was responsible for 9/11, which is far more true than probably even Trump’s supporters realize, since we know that the project for the New American Century (PNAC) --- a bunch of neoconservative Zionist advisers, mostly Dick Cheney's, people like Paul Wolfowitz and Richard Perle and their friends, arranged 9/11 as the New Pearl Harbor, that PNAC called for in September of 2001,” he said.  

“So Trump essentially told the truth about 9/11 in the face of Bush’s brother of Jeb, which led [George] H. W. Bush, the father, to actually make a throat-cutting gesture -- essentially threatening Trump’s assassination – during a Republican Party debate in Houston, Texas,” he stated.

“So Trump is continuing the tradition of telling these truths that you are not ever supposed to speak in the public if you are part of the system. In his speech on Thursday night, he said that ‘our system is rigged,” the scholar noted.  

American ‘system is rigged’

In his speech on Thursday night, Trump said that “our system is rigged.” He said that “those who control the levers of power in Washington are the global special interests and they don’t have your good – that’s the good of the American people – in mind.”

“Our campaign represents a true existential threat like they haven’t seen before,” he stated.

Trump said the November presidential election will determine whether America is a free nation, “or whether we have only the illusion of democracy, but are in fact controlled by a small handful of global special interests rigging the system.”

Making an astounding revelation, Trump said those involved in this plot against the American people include the political establishment in Washington, several Republican leaders, the Federal Reserve System, the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the Department of Justice, globalist elites, the Clinton campaign, the Commission on Presidential Debates and major US corporations.    

‘Elections in US really do not matter’

Dr. Barrett said Trump is “essentially correct about all these things.”

He added that the Republican presidential candidate “speaking about this globalist agenda that’s driven by what Peter Dale Scott of the University of California, Berkeley, calls the Deep State – this is essentially a behind-the-scenes, loosely organized cabal of the politically interested super-rich who have interests in various forms of organized crime, and who have managed to take power away from the official government.”

“So elections really do not matter that much in most situations,” the commentator observed.

Where is Trump leading America?  

Dr. Barrett said, “Trump, by telling these kinds of truths – including the fact that Clinton stole the Democratic primary from Bernie Sanders – is indeed setting things up for a kind of instability.”

“I don’t think he’s going to win the election through this, as he himself has said that it’s likely that the establishment would steal the election through election fraud,” he added.    

“And indeed many of the voting machines in the United States are black box machines that can be programmed for whatever outcome the programmers want,” he stated.  

“So where this is leading? I think it’s leading to situation in which the loss of faith that the American people have experienced in their institutions of power -- that’s the government, the media, the financial establishment -- is going to accelerate,” he argued.

“We have already seen that the polls show the number of Americans who trust their media to tell them the truth about what’s going on has been steadily going downwards, and that trend will accelerate thanks to Trump’s truth telling,” Dr. Barrett explained.
