Check my math, but that means that Trump could order that it is now *illegal*, tomorrow morning.
We'd never hear the end of the screaming, but that would be a gut shot to the democrats and the deep state.
I'm thinking this would be a most palatable move, if Trump has the belly for it.
And I believe he does.
It sounds like that might be the only way to take out the deep state
Wow, that would be fantastic. Then start renegotiating everything, salaries, benefits, etc.
The three counties around D.C. are the richest in America. American taxpayer monies going into the swamp. What are we getting for it? Granted, there are needed basic Federal services, the Military, the Mint and a few others, but all these different Departments have to be reviewed, staffing, salaries, benefits, pensions, travel, per diem. We all know they milk the system with travel, per diem and conference meetings.
I remember visiting D.C. in 2014 and driving by the Department of Education and Department of Agriculture buildings - Huge buildings, and I thought, "What do they do in there." I almost went in to the Dept. of Education building and asked to see Bill Ayers. Would have been fun to see their expression. Besides, he might have been there that day!
As you say, I hope Trump takes a hard look at the The National Federation of Federal Employees (NFFE). Maybe he can pull a Reaganesque Air Traffic Controllers move.
Go for it President Trump!
