More proof that Trump would clean up Washington DC– In a recent poll – 25% of federal workers say they would consider leaving their jobs if Donald Trump becomes president. Gov Exec reported:

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.

That’s a good start to cutting a bloated government.

That’s not enough but a good start at reducing the size of our bloated government.

They are getting down to the number of people that retire every year now. No big deal.

Can we get each of their names so that if Trump wins, we can hold them to their words.

They must be worried Trump is going to make them work for their salary and benefits, and tell them They’re Fired if they don’t!

That alone is sufficient to get me to vote for Trump. A 14% decrease in federal employment would save the taxpayers billions.

What happened to the 25%?!? All show...not going to give up their cushy govt. jobs. A 25% across the board reduction in federal govt. spending would be great tho.!

That would be great. And all the leftist Hollywood punks have promised to leave America if Trump is elected.

I bet the drug dealers and the welfare recipients would leave too.

It’ll be a lot more than 14% hitting the bricks when Trump cuts the deadwood out.

Whine, pout, stomp. Sounds like a lot of conservatives who are against Trump.

That’s the only rational argument I have heard for voting for Trump.

And Sally Kohn says she will move to Canada if Trump gets elected. Trump is getting campaign Ad material and he doesn’t even have to pay for it.

I suspect these promises are as empty as Alec Baldwin’s promise to leave if Bush won.

I remember during the Bush years, how these leftist celebrities said they would leave if Bush were re-elected..well he was and unfortunately these same leftist schmucks are still here. Guess they didn’t want to go to their Venezuelan Utopia after all
