WASHINGTON — At workplaces across the United States, it is routine for Americans’ conversations to turn to President Trump — whether his policies are good, whether he should be impeached, what to think about the “resistance.” Some drink from MAGA mugs; others tape cartoons to their cubicle walls portraying Mr. Trump as a Russian quisling.
But roughly two million people who work for the federal government have now been told that it may be illegal for them to participate in such discussions at work — a pronouncement that legal specialists say breaks new ground, and that some criticized as going too far. Federal Employees Are Warned Not to Discuss Trump

I must have missed it. Where in there did it say that Trump was the one mandating this?
Eh.….I tend to think discussing politics or religion at work is usually a bad idea anyway. I usually do my best to avoid getting drawn into such conversations. I also can't see having items that would display such affiliations at work, either.
It's the Hatch Act, which prohibits federal employees from engaging in partisan political campaigns at work, i.e., when they're supposed to be working for the taxpayers.
There's absolutely nothing new about it, as it dates from 1939.
Yea, discussing the best way to resist carrying out policies that it is your job to do, is probably not only not a good idea, it should be illegal if a federal worker.
Federal workers are there to carry out the policies of the government, set by elected officials. If they do not like the policy, they are free to quit.

We are discouraged not talk about politics at my job but it is mostly to save the feelings of the overly sensitive Trump voters. They are easily triggered which can be scary.

Trump voters arent the ones who keep saying, Not my President. Or, I am leaving for Canada. Or going onto peoples yards and burning Trump 2020 signs.
