I don't expect you to ever understand the difference between the Russian and American oligarchies, we all have our limitations.

In Russia, the visible governing state and deep state is one and the same. What you see is what you get. In the US you have alternating puppets with the same sets of hands behind the scenes (CFR, Health Insurance lobby, Defense lobby, Israel lobby, etc.) manipulating the strings and scripting the teleprompters. The illusion of democratic choice where in all matters of significance there is none.

The absurd paradox is you actually think that the US government is more "democratic", "transparent", etc. when the puppet handlers are hidden from view and any public scrutiny. 

The hypothetical American "free press" with their investigative skills has been absent for decades, and totally relies on deep state for leaks.

Stay in your bubble, I'm sure it is comfy there.
