On social media, amid Trump's praise, users have taken to X to urge Patel to step down from his position. One wrote: "What do you guys think about Kash Patel as head of FBI? I think he needs to step down. Another said: "Kash Patel is an incompetent fool who needs to step down from his leadership position." As for Pam Bondi shouldn’t she be sitting more behind her desk instead of being around President Trump all the time?"
