Former President Donald Trump learned many lessons from his four years in the White House.

Perhaps none hits home harder than discovering the chief executive of the United States isn’t actually in charge of the federal government.

On the eve of the 2020 election, Mr. Trump signed an executive order to do something about it. He created Schedule F, a novel classification for critical policymaking posts in the federal government subject to streamlined rules that say key employees serve at the will of the president. Within the excepted service, intelligence, national security and foreign service positions would have been the most affected had the plan gone into effect. Unfortunately, we won’t know for certain, since President Biden capitulated to public sector union demands and canceled the order before it was implemented.

Mr. Trump pledges to revive his plan to diminish the influence of partisans entrenched in the bureaucracy if he is reelected. “With you at my side, we will demolish the deep state,” he told the audience at a rally in South Carolina last month. “We will expel the warmongers from our government. We will drive out the globalists.”
