You don't get out of your bubble much, do you, Ned...aside from Trump's effort to subvert

Democracy at the end of his first term on Jan.6th...his second term will start with an attempt to politicize the functions of government by issuing Executive Orders to remove key leaders and replace them...not based on merit and an oath to our Constitution, but rather Loyalty to Trump, thus removing any semblance of Objectivity and reasoned judgement. Here's an excerpt from the attached article related to "Schedule F"...the insidious path to undermining our Democracy...

--------------------
How Does Schedule F Threaten Democracy?

By politicizing the civil service, Schedule F could have numerous far-reaching implications for American democracy.

Abuse of power. Under Schedule F, presidents would be free to reward cronies and even family with jobs or use law enforcement agencies to punish enemies and shut down protests, creating endless opportunities for corruption. Independent agencies that currently provide oversight and accountability, such as the Department of Justice, would be rendered useless.

Expansion of executive power. Schedule F, which was itself issued by executive order rather than legislation, would enable the president to effectively make policy without Congress. By evoking Schedule F, a president could also refuse to enforce existing legislation. The plan to expand executive power is informed by “unitary executive theory,” which essentially removes any limits to presidential authority and is championed by conservative legal scholars.

A chilling effect. In a climate where any expression contrary to the president’s ideology could result in termination, government employees would be strongly discouraged from speaking out. Agencies obligated to tell the truth to the American people could be incentivized to suppress the truth and spread misinformation.

Trust in government. Trust in government is already historically low. By further politicizing the government and creating chaos within it, Schedule F could contribute to further polarization and mistrust, both of which could lead to further democratic backsliding.

-----------------

Democrats have never, ever, proposed such quasi-Authoritarian action...nor have previous Republican administrations...only Trump. You know where this is headed...but you ony care about achieving POWER...the Projected claim you like to make about Dems...isn't that right, Neddie ;-).
