Trump Ally Says Federal Bureaucrats Who Have Issues With Prez-Elect Need To Resign

If the Deep State is not on board with the plans of President-elect Donald Trump then those people need to step aside.

That was the word from Article III Project founder Mike Davis, who also served as former Chief Counsel for Nominations to Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley when he spoke to ‘War Room’ co-host Natalie Winters about the appointments of the president-elect and the response from those who are opposed to them.

“There’s so much meltdown in the media right now. The idea that President Trump is picking people who are loyal to him. They’re acting like this is so outlandish or radical. I’d posit it’s loyal to America and by extension, President Trump represents America’s interests. But what is the sort of signal there that they’re so scared of appointing people who are actually loyal to President Trump and not the administrative state?” asked Winters.

“There are 4,000 political appointees who are supposed to manage four million executive branch employees. These political appointees are outnumbered a thousand to one. And so President Trump, when he fills these political appointments, he needs to make damn sure that his political appointees are loyal to the president and loyal to his policy agenda. In America, we have a president of the United States who was elected by all Americans,” Davis responded.

“The president is in charge of the executive branch. This notion that there are independent agencies separate from the duly elected president of the United States is just a wrong reading of the Constitution. It’s unconstitutional, and frankly, it’s very dangerous,” he added.

“Why do we want nameless, faceless bureaucrats at the FBI, the CDC, other executive branch agencies who think they’re not accountable to the American people through the president of the United States? That cannot happen during this term. Those people who think they’re going to undermine the president of the United States need to resign now. Their job is to follow lawful orders of the president of the United States,” the former chief counsel said.

“If they have policy disagreements with the president of the United States, they should resign, and they should run for Congress, and then they can run on their policy platforms in Congress. But until then, so long as they’re an executive branch employee, they work for the president of the United States. If they don’t follow his lawful orders, they must be fired,” said Davis.
