“When Trump left office, the threats to democracy posed by Schedule F — his plan to reclassify hundreds of thousands of federal employees into political appointees he could fire at will — seemed remote. That is no longer true now that he has a viable chance of being reelected. A chief lesson that Trump and his supporters learned was that they failed because they were unable to treat federal employees like contestants on The Apprentice, to be fired at Trump’s whims. In a second term, they have a plan to fix this problem that even if implemented haphazardly could generate extraordinary damage to the quality of American government and the stability of our democracy.” (10/06/24)
