Trump's real crime in the minds of elites

Today the Washington Post finally admitted that they don't believe a President should make foreign policy, the civil servants and diplomatic core should.

Washington Post - In Trump's Washington, the rogue actors are the real players - and the experts are increasingly irrelevant

These "experts" are the ones who got us involved in wars in Iraq, Somalia, Libya, Syria and want us to go to war with Iran. These are the same people who got us involved in Vietnam and caused the Bay of Pigs. These are the "career civil servants" that hate the idea of democracy and believe the average person is just some "smelly Walmart shoppers". When they testify before congress you can see them smirk in the self satisfied superiority they feel over us. They attend private meetings of the "elites" where they all agree on how the world should be run and deride democracy as populism. These are the same people that monitor all our online activities while denying it in public.

What do these people believe, they believe that Russia's refusal to give up their sovereignty threatens the world they seek to create. They seek war in the Ukraine will allow them to place gas pipelines into Europe so they no longer need to get their oil from Russia and they are willing to have the average person's children die in war to achieve this goal. They believe that the Venezuelan government should be outed so that nations oil can be privatized and sold to Exxon Mobil.

These "experts" created the laws that allowed American manufacturing to be sent to China and in private they say that they wish the United States was more like China with no democracy and strict control over the citizens. Read the article, it doesn't talk about Trump committing a crime, it says his true crime is thinking that as President, he gets to make foreign policy even when he doesn't agree with them.

Now With An Update:

The Atlantic - Foreign Policy Isn't Just Up To Trump And yet another article arguing that foreign policy is not the purview of the President. Hmmmm. Interesting timing. They attempted to make the impeachment inquiry about foreign affairs and Presidential power even though they claimed it was about Quid Pro Quo. It should be clear by now that that failed miserably.

So, what is with the new media push. Oh yeah, Trump wouldn't pass the Trans Pacific Partnership and is getting us out of the Paris Climate Accord. What do you want to bet that if Trump is re-elected, the congress will attempt to pass them without the President submitting them to them, which is required constitutionally? If you keep seeing articles like the one from the Post and the Atlantic then that is exactly what you can expect.
