His team of advisors, employees, and ministers are supposed to work for him, enforce his agenda and improve the country. Not undermine him and focus on illogical investigations that shouldn't have been initiated in the first place.

No. their job is not to be loyal to his agenda. Their job is to be loyal to the constitution of the United States. He is a president, not a king or a dictator. It is their job to decide which investigations are correct - not his.

We find more 'cases' because we do so much testing. Want less cases -- remove the testing. We have more prosecutions because we have prosecutors. Want less prosecutions -- remove the prosecutors. Replace with your own wolves in sheep clothing. #ModusOperandi #TrumpDictatorship

That sounds like the definition of democracy too me. Trump firing the prosecuter is obstruction. But democracy is change is it not?

So, how can we purge the government of stuff *we* don't like? I mean, before the election. Illegal actions like this need to be stopped.
