President Trump in the first week of his inauguration is his commitment to revenge on those who regard as the enemy, but his retaliation is not only imposed punishment for the past, but also threatening those who oppose himself. He stated that he was doing it. future.
He is prepared to have potentially serious results for those who have determined that loyalty is inadequate by releasing the security protection of former officials facing highly credible killing threats. Suggested that there was. It also included former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Dr. Anthony S. Faut, who led the pandemic response.
Trump's decision to try to reduce civil servant protection was to eliminate federal officials, which would delay or stop the first term policy, and replace them with supporters. Although this concept was formulated in Mr. Trump's first term, it was not completely enacted, but aimed to create a atrophy effect that informs career employees that if they do not follow, they may be fired. One advanced aide said.
By ordering the Ministry of Justice and intelligence to start an investigation to pursue political prejudice, the officials who seem to have participated in the investigation that he tried to set up as a “witch hunting”. I started a process to put it aside.
The leaders of the far -right group are released by his decision to give a pardon for the most violent riots on January 6 and those who have been convicted of a sin offered to attack democracy. Ta. Shortly after being released, two of these leaders, the most prominent, argued without regret that Trump would want to revenge on behalf of them.
One week has passed since Mr. Trump's second presidential president, but it is difficult to evaluate how a series of actions actually affect the power he hosts. For example, what is the presidential decree that has been investigated by the Ministry of Justice and intelligence agencies to ensure the accountability of the federal government's weapons by the former administration. It is ambiguous about what the “correction measures” requested by the order. Because it may look like.
But overall, these movements seem to be more likely to act on enemies than Trump's restrictions on punishment for those who are dishonesty, and to actively act on enemies more than to have promised in election activities. Clearly shows that the price is accompanied. Come.
White House Public Relations Director Steven Changn said in a statement that Trump had kept his promises during the election. “As he is consistently saying, the biggest retaliation is the success of all the Americans. Within a week, this country has returned to track.” Chang said.
Mr. Trump's measures include ordering government officials to report on their colleagues to promote diversity, fairness, and inclusive programs.
But the most frank message was emitted when the president stripped the details of security from several former officials facing the intimidation of the murder. This was an unexpected movement, not suggesting the election activities that Mr. Trump was considering.
Dr. Fauchi was regarded as a villain by many presidential supporters due to advice and policies in pandemic and lost security. The same was true for John R. Bolton, a former assistant to the National Security issue in part of Trump's first term, and Pompeo, Former Secretary of State. Bolton and Pompeo were all targeted by Iran's assassination plan, allegedly involved in Trump's counseling, who decided to kill Iran's security and highest commander in 2020. Similarly, highly confidential decisions provided security based on the threat evaluation of the intelligence community.
But Trump said last week that the safety after they left the administration was not guaranteed, and everyone was gaining enough money to cover private safety. He stated that he would not feel responsible, even if he was harmful by an enemy.
According to Trump's decision, officials, like Bolton, have strived to find their protection and provide funds.
In an interview on Sunday, Bolton said in an interview on Sunday, “I think this is Trump's style, and he really wants to do it.” “Despite the fact that he is looking forward, he really wants to do it, but I don't know if the road is flat.”
The decision on security details made some Republican members particularly anxious. This is because at least two of the officials who have withdrawn security, Brian Hook, who had been working on Iran's policy, did not clearly oppose Trump. 。 After the news that Mr. Trump had held a secret document after retirement in 2022, Pompeo was delayed and had some calm criticism. But Hook did not commit a clear crime. He even took his time to help Trump's government transfer team.
The Republican members close to them were trying to understand what had happened. People who are looking for a job in the second Trump administration go through the maze of loyalty demands, what political aging for any dishonesty is, why it applies in some situations, and does not apply in other situations. This is a common phenomenon because we are trying to distinguish it.
Senator Tom Cotton (Arkansaw) and Senator Lindsey Graham (South Carolina) have publicly discomfort on Trump's decision on security details. It is unusual for the party to have public opposition to the president's revenge trend.
Mike Pence, the first vice president of Trump, who was threatened his life by Trump support on January 6, 2021, “I'm sorry and concerned about Bolton's security. I'm doing it. ” , Pompeo and Hook.
Mr. Pence met a reporter at the Washington Office, a non -profit organization on Friday, and did not discuss confidential information, but it is clear from the public report that the threat from Iran is still in reality. He said that security was strictly adhered to. It is necessary to protect the lives of former employees.
President Joseph R. Biden Jr. has tried to provide some protection by giving a preemptive amnesty to some of Trump and his allies, including relatives who could be the target of his allies. 。
But Last week, Trump thought that it was a mistake to the FOX News's moderator Sean Hanity that Biden did not give pardon.
“Interesting, and probably sad is that he didn't give himself a pardon,” Trump told Hanity, and based on any evidence, Biden will be appointed Biden. I claimed that I had earned a profit from my family's work. I became the president.
Trump's target of anger often faced investigations and other government measures during the first term of the president. However, he began to develop a systematic approach rather than to purge the people who regarded the enemy from the government and replenish the government supporters, the previous year of the defeat in 2020, and is now. I am running a plan.
The serious moment was visited in November 2019. Mr. Trump sat in the cafeteria adjacent to the president's office and watched a line of officials testifying in his first impeachment trial.
According to the people in the cafeteria, Trump was furious. He wanted to know who was a disadvantageous testimony.
He has been focusing on a group that hates Trump for many years, or the concept of “deep state”, which is what he says, and hides in a federal bureaucracy and hinders Trump and his policy. Ta. Five years ago, Ukraine's President Wolodimil Zelensky, who has seen and heard about or being explained, regarding Biden's efforts to put pressure on Biden's investigation, betraying himself. The parade came to his heart.
After the Senate was acquitted in impeachment prosecution, Mr. Trump expressed a steep expression while the aides cheered. “That's what should never happen,” he said and was furious while abusing what he had experienced. He immediately started repayment. He returned to the government, 29 years old, a former assistant assistant, to eliminate the “snake” from the federal bureaucrats.
McCenti was willing to implement it, fired a suspicious person, and redesigned a government recruitment questionnaire to more effectively examine his loyalty to Trump.
McCenti's extensive effort was hindered by the occurrence of a new Coronavirus pandemic, which ruined the changes that Trump wanted to stop. Nevertheless, McCenti began creating a questionnaire for the loyalty test and changed the White House window to an important Cabinet organization such as the Ministry of Justice. This is the pioneer in the approach that Mr. Trump and his team took when the second administration was launched.
McCenti's role is currently responsible for a new presidential director, Sergio Go, a Trump supporter who is a dignitaries who forcibly forced loyalty.
At that time, McCenti was one of Trump's aides, like a history, and few people shared his goal of operating the government by strictly tested supporters. But now, those who work directly for Trump are eager to work on this idea.
Like him, many were involved in an investigation on actions as president and after retirement, and even received summoning and prosecution. And, like him, many believe that accused should pay.
