25% of Feds Would Consider Leaving Their Jobs if Trump Becomes President
Government Executive ^

Donald Trump leads the Republican field among federal employees, but many still say they would never work for him.

One in four federal workers would consider leaving their jobs if Trump were elected president, according to a new survey conducted by the Government Business Council, Government Executive Media Group’s research arm. About 14 percent of respondents said they would definitely consider leaving federal service under President Trump, while an additional 11 percent said they might. The findings indicate those leaving government would come from agencies' top ranks, as a majority of respondents were in General Schedule positions GS-13 and higher.

Awesome.
This kind of thing adds to my reasons for switching preferences from Cruz.


Which returns to that question: "WHY are there such things as 'non essential employees' in government? If they're not essential THEY HAVE NO BUSINESS BEING THERE!"

The only problem with this article, and our hoping that it's true, is that libs just lie when they say they're gonna leave.

Sort of like Hollywood crazies that promised they'd leave the country if W won. They didn't......

Problem is most of them would not survive in the real business world.

Who in the real world would hire them?

They wouldn’t have to “consider” leaving; they’d be gone once he swung his spot light around to them.

Blustering blowhards just like all the celebrities who said they’d move out of the country if GW Bush was elected.

This is enough to tip me from being a cruz supporter into being a trump supporter! Great!

This is very much like self-deportation.

Given a no-nonsense, productivity oriented work environment in the government, many slackers & corruptocrats will hit the door before being shown it.

Similarly, given a hostile work/living/legal environment for illegals, many will self-deport.

Only Trump offers this dual opportunity.

All we need is another 50% and we will be at the right level.

If only that were true! You know these scumbags will renege on that immediately; they have no reason to leave their federal gravy train, where they gum up the works from the inside; same thing happened in the Reagan Admin.
