I feel like that is why their appointments now are about being maximally subservient, over other priorities like basic competence.

If you think that there's a lot of Rep voters that wanted a coup, I'm not sure why you think its so hard to find one that's willing to get appointed.

I don't think Trump has godlike powers! But he has the pretty complete backing of the courts and a new interpretation of Executive Privilege, and control of who is assigned leadership of every part of federal government.
