You silly peasants should not worry I will abandon you. I have taken steps to make sure I, the chosen one can lead you forever. I have neutralized one of the deep states tools, the FEC. With all our new voting machines that are beyond the reach of liberal saboteurs I will emerge victorious. I will look to my dear friend and ally of the united states Vlad to make sure the election count is safe. Once I am proclaimed your God the GOP will make sure that no liberal scum can question our greatness.
Only three officials at the FEC with new resignation of Mathew Peterson, should be 6, at least need 4 to do their job.
Since too few members they won't be able to hold official meetings, issue fines, make new rules, conduct and approve audits or even offer official advice. Not all Trumps fault it seems though, been too few since Bush Jr. I would be curious if Obama had any he tried to appoint and Mitch just stalled them out in the Senate. They need to fix the way these appointments are made, we deserve a fully functional government that we pay damn good money to have.
Maybe something where if the president goes x amount of days without appointing someone for the senate to confirm, the agency elects them from their ranks.
