I think they already done the hiring in anticipation of Trump.

So all federal workers are lazy according to you. And of course they all live in Washington D.C..


So what happens when the average middle-class fed worker is out of a job?

Good let's start with 10% across the board of foreign aid and an already bloated military budget, let's see if the heavily lobbied ($$$) Congress will go along.

Where will the cuts come from in both spending and staffing? All I see is a lot of bluster and no details, pretty typical of Trump's style of campaigning and seemingly governing too.


So are you ready for the local and possible national recession due to that large a cut in federal spending? Where do these staffing cuts come from? From workers no longer necessary due to "deregulation"? If so look forward to uninspected food for your family, banking fees up the wazoo, lead in water, etc... but he we really stuck it to all those lazy workers, so it all worked out in the end right? You won, Bigly, that's all that matters....

They get a job in the private sector like the rest of us.

If a government department or company with a government contract has money left at the end of the year, they make sure they spend it (waste it) so the next contract is not cut back financially. I know this, and most certainly Trump knows this.

Federal, state and city workers are all the same no matter where they live!!!

Except that Trump wants to increase spending by the Pentagon to levels even the military thinks is unwarranted. It's one of his platform tenants even mentioned in that PR release masking as an article.

I agree with you on this one! Cutting Foriegn aid and bringing our guys back home from wherever they are would go give us some money to pay off some of this crushing Government debt.
