This editor had his reservations about Donald Trump running again in 2024, but the more his opponents protest, the better he sounds. Just check out Lincoln Project alumnus Steve Schmidt and his podcast, "The Warning with Steve Schmidt." The warning apparently is that if Trump is reelected, his appointees will "strip bare the federal government" and "disassemble the government of the United States." Ironically, that's one area in which Trump disappointed us during his term — we were counting on him to drain the swamp.
"If Donald Trump wins, thousands of his appointees will come into office and they will strip bare the federal government. They will disassemble the government of the United States."

I lay out what we can expect if Trump wins in 2024: https://t.co/JWA9ApnrnF pic.twitter.com/gJxpCZKcsA
They can start by disassembling the FBI, the ATF, the Department of Education, etc.
That sounds amazing

From your lips to God’s ear!
Imagine a government of, by and for the people of this country!
Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and the other founders would be cheering right about now if they were around to see that.

That’s what we want. Disassemble that whole fraudulent thing. Fire everyone

Sounds like an endorsement

If I believed that given the opportunity, @RealDonaldTrump would strip bare the federal government, I would vote for him in a heartbeat. If I believed it.

We can't find a single person in Schmidt's replies who doesn't think this sounds awesome. Trump promised to drain the swamp and he failed, and now the swamp is trying to put him in jail. He needs to be serious and strip the federal government bare if elected again.
