Can Biden decide how Trump governs on his return to White House? Democrats want him to

Firstpost  

From judicial appointments to funding for projects to amending contracts so that employees have greater protection against Trump’s policies– Democrats want Biden to give it his all to limit the damage Trump can do Joe Biden salutes while boarding Air Force One as he departs for Wilmington, on November 11, and Donald Trump attends a campaign event in Duluth, Georgia, on October 23, 2024. Reuters/File Photo Capitol Hill Democrats are pushing President Joe Biden to take aggressive action in his final weeks in office to counter President-elect Donald Trump’s expected plans to dismantle federal agencies and reshape them according to his preferences. “There’s a lot that the Biden administration can do, and I know they’ve done some scenario planning,” said Rep. Jared Huffman, D-Calif. “It would be a huge mistake not to prepare and put plans in place.” Reports indicate Trump is considering sweeping changes, including a possible purge of Pentagon leadership he perceives as “woke” and reshaping various departments. “We should do everything that we can,” said Rep. Juan Vargas, D-Calif. “He’s still the president until the last moment.” Rep. Brad Sherman, D-Calif., suggested that Biden could amend union contracts to provide federal employees with stronger protections against a potential Trump purge.
