Trump makes the same argument, which is funny because he fired the last Director (Comey) his hand-picked successor, Christopher Wray, is still the Director of the FBI after all this time (also funny how he bashes the federal reserve, despite firing the last Chair (Janet Yellen) and his hand picked successor, Jerome Powell, still in charge of the Fed as of 2024).
