Contributing sentiments towards policy:
56% : Trump as president could direct the Office of Personnel Management to draft new rules, although those would face legal challenges.52% : But if Trump were to win the election for the Republicans and revive it during a second administration, he could dramatically increase number of federal employees - around 4,000 - who are considered political appointees and typically change with each new president.
50% : The move comes in response to so-called "Schedule F", an executive order Trump issued in 2020 that sought to allow for reclassifying tens of thousands of the 2.2m federal employees and thus reduce their job security protections.
25% : The potential effects of the change are wide-reaching because the number of federal employees who might have been affected by Schedule F under Trump is unclear.
24% : Joe Biden's administration issued a new rule on Thursday making it harder to fire thousands of federal employees, hoping to head off the risk that if Donald Trump wins back the White House in November he won't be able to bully and decimate the workforce as he imposes the radical ideologies he's been pushing on the campaign trail, escalating what he did while in office.
21% : That plan calls for vetting and potentially firing scores of federal workers and recruiting conservative replacements to wipe out what leading Republicans have long decried as the "deep state" governmental bureaucracy that allegedly worked against Trump from the inside.
