This is a feature, and why Trump's second term is so different to his first, or Bidens, or Obamas, or Bush, or Nixon. You'd probably have to go back to FDR for such sweeping changes to the US state.

Trumps first term was overturning norms in behavior, but not overturning the way the entire governing system works, all four estates.
