There's the "at the pleasure of the president" kind of thing.

These jobs are pretty big ones like CISA chief but it doesn't matter much how well you serve the people or whatever. It just matters how well you serve the president

I find it incredibly weird that people stroll into a conversation like this, basically flexing the complete lack of civic knowledge they have.

I think it was sarcasm:)

It depends on the definition of "people" I guess.
