This is a pro-democracy move! Elections being accompanied by a large scale shakeup to help the elected president enact the agenda people voted for is a good thing actually. Ideally, every federal employee would respond to an election by maximally pushing to achieve the president’s agenda, like at a startup. That would be responsive democracy, where voting yields immediate and visible changes. If you mean something other than “democracy” then say it.

  Sure, a democratic one. So?

    There is a distinct difference between democracy and republics

      They aren’t mutually exclusive. What general point are you trying to make? That there is no democratic process in the USA? Because we have federal and state level democratic processes.

I think they mean democracy, as in, if he's willing to disregard laws passed by congress and the constitution, and has been caught on record demanding poll workers to "find" votes, and has disbanded all oversight - why would you expect future elections to be free and fair?
