Trump does not control his own Administration?

Trump appointed ALL of them!

Trump can fire every political appointee at the Department of Justice, move his desk into the Attorney General’s office, and start ordering the career civil servants to release documents.


Sure Trump can fire everybody. Then the Congressional GOP will slow walk his new nominations and career DOJ Democrats will control the DOJ well past the midterms. How awesome would that be?

FRiend, you need to join us in Realville. It is clear as day that Trump doesn’t control the executive branch and his own party does not support him.

Re: “Then the Congressional GOP will slow walk his new nominations...”

It doesn't matter.

Trump is the Chief Executive Officer of the Department of Justice.

Constitutionally, Trump doesn't have to appoint anybody.

Trump can just command every civil servant executive to report directly to the President.

Congress can threaten to impeach Trump, but for what?

Releasing documents that prove the DOJ is corrupt?

Re: “Career DOJ Democrats will control the DOJ well past the midterms.”

LOL!

Career civil servant Democrats have controlled the Department of Justice since the 1960s!

What you like to end that?

I would.

But unless we light a fire under Trump, it is not going to happen.
