Another and better way to put it,
Which is why the Federal government isn't especially responsive to the will of the citizens who just elected the president to represent them.
Sure - because the Federal government is also responsive to the will of the citizens who just elected their House members to represent them, and their Senators to represent them. And the will of the citizens who elected prior Congresses, who passed laws (like the Civil Service act and the Administrative Procedure Act) to limit the ability of the President to make huge changes in the federal workforce and which laws still apply.
The Founders did not set up a "winner-take-all" system like a parliamentary government. We have divided government, and the system is intended for the will of the citizens expressed in the election of Congress to serve as a check on the will of the citizens expressed in the election of a President - and vice versa.
