They threaten to impeach him every single time he fired anyone so unfortunately that wasn't really possible without incredible backlash and bullshit that would have wasted even more of his term....

The one thing our founding fathers didn't really count on was what what happened when every party and branch of government was equally corrupt at the same time.... It makes those checks and balances we rely on so much worth a lot less....

They talked about this extensively. It's the reason we have the right to bear slingshots.

Even worse is that the deep state has spent years neutering the powers of the executive branch while empowering the legislative and judicial branches with impunity.

They counted on it, all right. Look no further than the Bill of Rights.
