Trump mocked fears about his authoritarianism tendencies at a Fox News town hall on Tuesday, stating he’d be a dictator only on “Day 1” so that he could close the border and start drilling.
The fiery language is not new, but he and a group of Trump insiders are working behind the scenes on plans to amass his power so that he can carry out an unprecedented restructuring of the U.S. government.
A key part of this effort revolves around reinstituting an executive order known as Schedule F, which would reclassify a large chunk of those federal staff members as at-will employees.
It’s not that the federal service isn’t in need of reforms, says Kathryn Dunn Tenpas, a senior fellow at the University of Virginia’s Miller Center.
Paul Dans, a former Trump administration official, is director of the 2025 Presidential Transition Project, a conservative think tank organizing dozens of partners who have joined the effort to build this government in waiting.
The federal workforce is made up of tens of thousands of nonpolitical career civil servants who remain on their jobs regardless of who is the president.
