Avril Haines is the Director of National Intelligence. She is the person who informed Trump of threats to his life coming from Iran.
Haines is also a main player in promoting the idea that Russia was colluding with the Trump campaign to steal our elections. To this day, she identifies Russia as the greatest foreign threat to our elections.
Haines was part of the CIA and the NSA under Obama. She is associated with the evil agencies that libertarians should most distrust.
We are getting “information” from Haines and those in the deep state that there are threats from Iran to assassinate Donald Trump.
Brilliant Strategy?
It’s hard to say for sure that this is a lie. There are certainly reasons that Iranian officials would have for wanting to kill Trump. After all, Trump ordered the assassination of a top Iranian official when he was president. It was one of the worst things that Trump did as president, and it risked leading to a war with Iran.
But the lying liars in U.S. intelligence are making this a story. They probably have no actual evidence, just as was the case with the Russia hoax and almost every reason they give to go to war. Even if there is some kind of threat to Trump from Iran, is there actually any significant risk of Iranians being able to carry it out?
But putting blame on Iran makes sense. Many pro Trump people, who have become more skeptical of U.S. foreign adventurism, still buy into Iran being this big enemy of the United States. If the U.S. government would stop sanctioning Iran, making threats, and funding their enemies, then Iran would have no reason to oppose the U.S. at all.
Some conservatives are getting suckered into this whole thing about Iran trying to kill Trump. On the left, they will just repeat anything that is said by the establishment and the so-called intelligence agencies. So, it seems a good majority of Americans will buy this claim that Iran is a major threat to Trump’s life.
This achieves many things for the deep state. It unites people in opposing Iran. It makes a convenient enemy for a possible future war or conflict. It distracts us from the previous assassination attempts on Trump. Most of all, if Trump actually is assassinated, it means that the deep state can blame Iran instead of itself. Some Trump supporters may actually buy it, too.
Is Trump This Stupid?
The crazy thing is that Trump is actually repeating these claims about Iran trying to kill him. It reminds me of when Bernie Sanders was running for president and the liars started saying that the Russians were attempting to help the Sanders campaign.
Instead of Sanders calling the whole thing ridiculous, he went along with it and talked tough about Russia not getting away with it if he is president. That was so obviously out of the establishment playbook, just as this whole thing with Iran.
If the establishment can make up a narrative to downgrade a somewhat anti-establishment candidate, plus stir up war fever by making a foreign country out to be doing bad things, they are getting a two for one special.
Some will say that Trump is just playing along with the deep state, but why? They have likely already tried to kill him. Trump is putting his life at even greater risk by going along with this scam.
Does he not understand that by going along with this story that it gives an excuse for the deep state to assassinate him? If Trump is killed, then they can just blame Iran, and even some Trump supporters will believe it. The deep state can get rid of Trump and stir up conflict with Iran. It’s a win-win for them.
If Trump has some kind of a deal with the deep state, it better have come after the attempt on his life in July. Otherwise, he is being completely played.
The fact that Trump is actually going along with this supposed Iran threat really makes me doubt his capabilities or motivations for a second term. He is either stupid, or he is making deals with the deep state.
Trump is risking his life even more now by going along with the same deep state actors that sold us the Russian collusion hoax.
