The Destruction of the Administrative State

The appointments of Tulsi Gabbard, Pete Hegseth, and Matt Gaetz are viewed as a targeted effort by Trump's administration to dismantle existing government structures. These picks express contempt for the roles they are assigned, indicating a dramatic departure from traditional Republican views. Steve Bannon has frequently emphasized this agenda, envisioning the complete eradication of the administrative state that has governed American politics for decades. His remarks highlight a broader nationalist vision that prioritizes disruption over conventional governance, challenging the status quo within both parties.
