The Civil Service Act was enacted specifically to prevent criminals and tyrants from getting unlimited control of the government. Good luck on repealing that.
It blocked Trump from illegally seizing power on Jan 6. That's why he wants to get control of it. C'mon.
You're about a hundred years off.
CIVIL SERVICE ACTS (1883) William V. Luneburg Since the formation of the United States [1] under the Constitution, the government has taken various and sometimes controversial approaches to the hiring of federal and state administrative staff, or the civil service [2].

This is why sleeping in history class is a bad idea.
They do go after criminals. And as you know, Trump is a convicted criminal. But it has more relevance than you think. Trump tried to weaponize the Justice Department. It's one of the reasons he fired Jeff Sessions. Sessions told him that he couldn't just have people arrested.
WASHINGTON — Attorney General Jeff Sessions had a tenuous hold on his job when President Trump called him at home in the middle of 2017. The president had already blamed him for recusing himself from investigations related to the 2016 election, sought his resignation and belittled him in private and on Twitter.
Now, Mr. Trump had another demand: He wanted Mr. Sessions to reverse his recusal and order the prosecution of Hillary Clinton.
“The ‘gist’ of the conversation,” according to the report by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, quoting Mr. Sessions, “was that the president wanted Sessions to unrecuse from ‘all of it.’”
Mr. Mueller’s report released last week brimmed with examples of Mr. Trump seeking to protect himself from the investigation. But his request of Mr. Sessions — and two similar ones detailed in the report — stands apart because it shows Mr. Trump trying to wield the power of law enforcement to target a political rival, a step that no president since Richard M. Nixon is known to have taken.
The president repeatedly sought to have Attorney General Jeff Sessions reopen the investigation into Mrs. Clinton’s use of a private email server.

This is what Trump wants to remove if he's re-elected. He wants the freedom to just arrest anyone he considers an enemy. After all, Putin does it. Kim does it. Xi does it. Maduro does it. Why can't he?
