You sound very naive.

Do you recognize they will be more prepared and organized this time, and they've been planning for this? (Unlike 2016 when he was a longshot).

They have the courts now.

In his first term he had some legit Rs (all the ones who came out against him in this election), now it will just be fringe ppl and Elon etc.


They have the Supreme Court, but if Trump starts mass firings outside of civil service rules, those cases will go to MSPB and/or area district courts.

Too many patriotic Republicans around during the first term. Now it's just yes men who don't care.

You might be right. But then again, why didn’t he do it during his first term?
