“POTUS is the ultimate authority of that Branch. He can't fire Senate approved cabinet level officials or other elected persons, but everyone else is fair game. Could be wrong.”
Luckily for Presidents it looks as if you are wrong…
“ The Tenure of Office Act (1867-1887) was a controversial federal law meant to restrict the ability of the U.S. president to remove certain officials that Congress had already approved. Passed by the 39th Congress on March 2, 1867 it was used as the legal premise for impeaching President Andrew Johnson, whose Reconstruction policies were unpopular with the Radical Republicans in Congress. It was repealed in 1887 and declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 1926.The repeal of the Tenure of Office Act strengthened the power of the executive branch of the U.S. government.“

So then Trump could fire every Cabinet Level official and really clean house? Start with the DHS Secretary Mayorkas and down the line. Also, he should take a page from Clinton's and Obama's playbook and fire every Federal District Attorney in the country.
While he's at it, fire or replace every "woke" top general and admiral. It would send a message to those waiting to replace them and do wonders for recruitment.
The above and reversing every insane Biden E.O, should be on day one just like Biteme did. It's time to play rough like the Dem/socialists/commies do.
Plus, no more Ivanka as an advisor, and put in place a conservative transition team who will investigate and advise for or against his nominations and appointments. I believe he is more politically aware now and probably won't make the same mistakes.
It's a lot to do, but then President Trump is a multi-tasker.
