Even if Trump loses the election, Loeb said the administration could move in fewer than 90 days to impose the order, which he worries might be designed to let Trump political appointee stay on into a Biden administration.
"This could be used to put a whole bunch of Trump loyalists in place," Loeb said, making it messy for a Biden team to fire them.
Loeb estimated that the change could strip due process rights and protections from more than 100,000 employees.
Rep. Don Beyer, a Democrat, whose Northern Virginia district includes about 85,000 federal workers, said the order, if enacted, would usher in loyalty tests and further politicize agencies that have become deeply partisan workplaces under Trump.
"It's an attempt to redefine the civil service as a political arm of the presidency rather than public servants who work for the American people," Beyer said, calling the result "open cronyism that does not benefit the country, but the president."
