Well They Should Be Scared in DC
Trump Is Coming Back And The Usual Tricks Won't Save The Unelected Bureaucracy This Time Around...
My theory for several years now is that Trump had to play dumb about what they were doing to him when he came in the first time. He had to pretend not to know they were spying on him and investigating while he was still a mere candidate.
He never really had any functional control of that unelected federal bureaucracy. They were resisting him, sabotaging him, refusing his orders across many of the federal agencies.
That's why his 2nd term is absolutely terrifying the DC Machine. He doesn't have to play dumb this time. So he’s not going to. He’s making this crystal clear in how he handles his transition team and cabinet appointments.
It's not a transition currently where they can spy on him, insert all kinds of Deep State loyalists into his team, and hand him a list of hundreds of Deep State loyalists to appoint to key jobs.
He is making it clear that he fully intends to have FULL AND COMPLETE AND TOTAL CONTROL of the federal bureaucracy....or what's LEFT OF IT once his Cabinet is done burning about 2/3rds of it down.
Trump is also signaling that he's not only taking Executive Branch powers back from the unelected federal Leviathan bureaucracy, but he’s also fully intending to seize Executive powers that have been meekly handed over to the US Congress.
Such as that pernicious legal fiction that the US Senate gets to decide who the Chief Executive can and cannot hire to run Executive Branch agencies.
They'll scream, and they'll cry when Trump refuses to go along with the 'tradition' of that legal fiction and either forces Congress into recess so he can recess appoint his Cabinet, or he'll directly sue at SCOTUS to demand a ruling on the 'advice and consent' clause of the Constitution.
Either way, the DC Dream in which they force Trump to sit by and fume impotently as they slow-roll confirming his nominees for 2 years is going to remain that: a dream.

I've felt since the Gaetz nomination and withdrawal that Our President is going to dare the Senate to delay "consent" on one or more nominations, precisely so SCOTUS can determine that they have no Constitutional veto power over his picks. I do feel that it was planned for Gaetz to withdraw since Bondi's nomination was announced all of 6 hours later. Maybe Gaetz was the battering ram to soften the process up for Bondi?
Im amused at the squealing of the left and rinos, about Trump taking charge without their input. I think we as a nation made it quite clear, WE DON’T WANT their brand of input. Its been toxic to a great nation, and even greater people. That they now fear retribution is understandable. Perhaps they should have considered that before launching all out communism on us. That they fear us is by my standards “just”. Because they should totally understand, right here, right now, that we have no intention of forgiving them without requiring them to suffer some consequences. Ideally, the total dismantling of the Democrat party is in order, much like the NAZIS (yes I said Nazis) were dismantled in Germany. The affiliation should be an embarrassment never to be uttered in public places. Politicians would need to openly denounce any ideology that even broached the Democrat dreams as they are presented up to 2024, to be recognized as an American candidate for office. Jmo
