The same analysis applies. Almost none of the many tens of thousands of people in core jobs in agencies were doing any of these things. They weren't rioting, they weren't following people home or terrorizing anyone, they weren't denying people their constitutional rights. They're just people working their jobs and trying to advance the policies they believe in (even if you disagree with what they think is the right policy).
Here's the rub. They don't get to pick who the political leadership is. They vote like everyone else, but they can't be partisan democrats working for other partisan democrats and implementing partisan democrat policies. No. That's not how our system works.
Their jobs are to execute the policies set forth by the duly elected political leadership. No one elected the Deep State. They're not extraConstitutional overlords who can affect public life.
The title is "public servant" for a reason.
If their egos can't handle the fact that for a second time the broader public voted in a guy they find personally repulsive, that's too freaking bad. Peter Drucker said that at the end of the day all employees are volunteers and if they can't serve the new administration by implementing their policies then they need to be shown the door.
If you're ever looking at a small handful of people and telling yourself, "Well, that's what Democrats are all like," you're going to end up with a really distorted view of Democrats.
I think I've walked into the Twilight Zone, where after a Presidential campaign in which Trump supporters were called Nazis over and over again the democrats are somehow victims.
