Cal Thomas argues that government agencies persist due to inertia and political support from lobbyists and unions. He contrasts reform within institutions with Trump’s call to blow up the status quo, urging preservation of components that promote general welfare and defense while discarding those past their sell-by date. He frames the struggle as a clash between the establishment and We the people.
