to let Donald Trump returns to the White House. One employee tells CNN, quote,

there is a feeling of dread among everyone. CNN's Renee Marsh is with us now. Renee, what are you

hearing? Well, John, we are in a new dystopian hellscape. That is from a federal employee via text

message last night, and that is the mindset of many of the 2 million federal

workers anticipating Donald Trump's return to office. Now, to be clear, what Donald Trump is

promising for federal workers is unlike anything we have seen in our lifetime. He's proposing

reverting to a structure of government that existed 141 years ago, when political parties gave government

jobs to their supporters. And that's what has federal workers, who I'm speaking to, so anxious

and so scared about Trump's plan known as Schedule F. Now, it would give him the power to start

these mass firings of nonpartisan career employees perceived as disloyal,

who may get in the way of his policy actions at these agencies.

As you know, Trump has obsessed on the campaign trail about the idea of federal workers

being agents of the deep state working against him and his agenda.

Now, some of the employees who live through the first Trump administration say

they are experiencing PTSD, one saying, quote, we are absolutely having conversations amongst

ourselves about whether we can stomach a round two. That's what one government employee told me,

but it's not just the mass firings. We expect to see a second Trump presidency will also mean mass transfers of senior executives,

relocation of agency offices, something we saw the first time around.

This is the primal scream of a dying regime.

Pray for our enemies, because we're going to medieval on these people.

Here's not got a free shot on all these networks lying about the people.

The people have had a belly full of it.
