There are precious few “working Americans” in the federal government.

No, I like your earlier idea of the quarter of you quitting “public service”. Please continue on that track.

First step, cut 670,000 down to about half that.

Since when does a half butted outfit tell the POTUS what he is or is not going to do?

That MIGHT have been the case, but we have a new sheriff in town and the American People are coming with him, so back down, and sit down, you MIGHT have a job or you might be picking string beans in Iowa...

We ‎will work with the Trump administration on areas of common ground, as we have with every administration for generations.

The arrogance of the 'fourth branch of government' is appalling. Public sector unions should be outlawed.

Federal employee union will keep fighting for working Americans under Trump administration

Working Americans elected Trump and don't want anything to do with their help.

Federal workers will continue to do their jobs regardless of who is in office

Wow. That's big of them.

Can we disband or make illegal federal government employee unions?
They are bad for the country and a base of support for the communists, er, Democrats.

Kennedy via an executive order #10988, which allowed the creation of a union representing federal employees,

Trump could repel that order if and when he decides to.

Sep 4, 2010 - In 1962, President John F. Kennedy signed Executive Order 10988, which permitted collective bargaining by federal employees.

This union should not exist. And if this Union is more than an internal HR department, it should be outlawed.

What do government workers know about “working Americans”?

“We ‎will work with the Trump administration on areas of common ground

One area of common ground I can think of is the 35% of government workers that said they would quit of Trump was elected. Let's start there.

And by the way. Trump has made a living working with unions and government bureaucrats. Trump finds a way to work with them.

US Govt needs the same kind of reforms Gov. Walker implemented in Wisconsin, where as soon as the union workers had the choice to belong to the union or not, most of them quit.

As public servants, federal employees work for the American people

That's the funniest damned thing I've read all day.

There is no justification for a Federal Workers Union.

President Kennedy created one by Executive Order. President Trump can eliminate it by Executive Order.

Fire, at least enough of them, so enough move out of suddenly too expensive Fairfax County to turn VA back to Red. Fire enough of them so that the organizations for those left can’t afford to out lobby those with real jobs.
