Oh, I meant people he installed but yeah, he's been running rampant through "Biden's people"
Pretty sure he got rid of some of his first term appointees. Maybe some inspectors general and he may have railed against a judicial appointee or three as a "radical Marxist"?
General Milley was his first term appointee for Chair of the Joint Chiefs, and one of the first things Trump did in his second term was to strip Milley of his security clearance, security detail, and even his placement of his portrait with the other former chairs.
Jerome Powell was Trump's pick for Chair of the Federal Reserve, replacing Yellen (the first time that a Fed chair had not gotten a second term, and Trump has been clamoring for the power to fire him.
lol, did he really call his SC appointees "radical Marxists"? I just can't keep up anymore
