He may not be able to replace cabinet members without approval but he sure can fire people left and right...and should.

Federal Worker is an oxymoron.

[President Trump should have started a massive purge in January 2017.]

Exactly. It’s what I would have done. Any Obama holdover and/or anyone who expressed support for the Lying Kenyan would have been out.

Well now...his Chief of Staff probably advised against it.

Luckily, Trump knows better now than to have Inside-The-Beltway Republicans in his staff.

Because in this world, nothing can be said to be certain, except:

“President Trump should have started a massive purge in January 2017.”

His greatest strategic error, one that will haunt him.

Trump initially thought he could trust the members of his Party. He knows better now.

“He didn’t have people waiting to join him. He had/has to take and try to work with what was/is given to him.”

Not only did he not have people waiting to join him, but the few who did joined to sabotage him. [coughSESSIONScough]

This next term we will see only if we get out and VOTE!
The Good Lord has given us a second chance; He relayed to us all His power could do. We need to spring forth from His Efforts in order to rightfully claim all benefits from His Action.

Our POTUS-VSG has used the rules and played the game of our foes. Projection done by them in front of a mirror to reflect back on them. Kim Clement prophesied what would come to pass. The fact he made this tape should open the eyes of all people that there is a Higher Authority and He does perform Miracles, building our Faith.

The MOST SHOCKING Prophecy About America’s Next 8 Years - Kim Clement (approx 35 minutes)

Kim is just one, there are a number of others who have given the same testimony.

President Trump should have started a massive purge in January 2017.

* * *

He would have were it not for a couple things. 1) the real threat to he and his family; 2) the courts were festering with
OBamyistes.

One would think that the Obama holdovers would soon learn to lay low, but they never seem to do so. I suppose each one wants to be the hero of the left and get President Trump un-elected. They are so stupid that it is obvious to the most casual observer that they got their jobs through political connections and not on merit.

On inauguration day 2017 he stood in front of the entire Federal Megalith and announced he was going to war with them.

Then he did not purge the enemy soldiers from his ranks. Nor did he drive the enemy our from behind his lines.

You be the judge. After viewing another version of this same event,which I found VERY important, I viewed this one as well.

Kim (on camera) told of his vision in this 2007 video. Spoke of Impeach! Impeach! Impeach! predicted the unmasking of d’rats’ evil and embarrassment for the pubbies. GOD was unhappy with those we’ve elected to ‘govern’ us; Kim predicted a Trump win in 2016 and, again in 2020. After all which has occurred after watching this video (seen before DJT was named nominee in 2015, it certainly made an impression on me and did strengthen my Faith. Not only did a large majority of US pray for someone like DJT, we were able to elect the ‘real man’. See it or not; but if a man of Faith, 35 min to strengthen your Faith is not a lot to ask. Miracles are seen every day - all we need do is open our eyes and acknowledge His work surrounds us.

Suggest you watch, at least a portion. Don’t let the fact Jim Bakker is mentioned throw you off the path. Not a Bakker fan here, but do have an open mind and willing to listen and form my own opinion/decision. Jim is referenced by commentators (a second,two, or three) and not mentioned again.
If you should view this, and the opportunity presents itself, your feedback would be appreciated. A believer? Becoming a believer with stronger Faith? It’s all just a coincidence?

In His Spirit; Blessings,

He was unable to do it at that time. Sorry you're not able to understand that.

That is not entirely true. There were articles here on FR early in the administration revealing that many permanent civil service employees were actively turning away resumés and applications from known Trump loyalists and campaign volunteers. Trump and Ivanka both remarked how shocked they were, after dealing with the sharks in New York, how terrible the DC insider behaviors were.

The day Bill Clinton took office, he accepted the resignation of every US attorney.

Bush fired over half of them in his first week.

This, and other steps would have been routine on day one.

Now it would bring explosive outrage from both sides of the aisle.

Yes, indeed. I can’t believe he was so naive as to think these Deep State holdovers would be loyal to him.
