It does sound like something he'd say. LOL.
I fully agree. I think the deadwood percentage is closer to 85%. I have worked with these worthless scumbags.
Why? Is President Trump opposed to "smoking out the Resistance"?
Hell yeah
Sounds like a classic Pareto Distribution.
Were surrounded. That simplifies the problem. Quote Attributed to Chesty Puller, USMC

They are in front of us, behind us, and we are flanked on both sides by an enemy that outnumbers us 29:1. They cant get away from us now!
Time to remember some history and great leaders.

“As one of the senior officials working without a paycheck”
They are getting paid all of it, when the Democrats agree with
the American people and fund the wall.
The wall is a good thing. It will drastically reduce the invasion of illegals to the American people.
It’s the Democrats that are the cause of the Shut down.
The Federal government is a perfect example of The Peter Principle, writ large. Couple that with The Three Laws of Murphy and you have the problem described in a nutshell.
Smoking out the traitors might have been effective before the election, but not now. By 2020, this issue will be forgotten.
And just think, there are 50 states and a gaggle of municipalities, etc. that have similar “staffing.” It’s too bad we can’t shut it all down long enough to kill off 85% of all of them.
My old man used to call it the 5-15-80 rule and he was right. That aside, this is fake news.
Wash rinse and repeat until all the left wing dandruff is removed.
Well stated. The long shutdown will force those not committed to combating the left to eventually call for the government to be reopened and thus, for socialism to continue, unabated, in the US experiment.

Has a single Federal employee quit his position over the “shutdown” yet? If any have, I’m sure they represent less than 0.01% of the workforce.
I can’t wait for the light bulb in the public’s head to go off when they realize that they do not need Big Government. Then the Tax Savings from Smaller Government light bulb goes off......
Visit the coffee floor of fed buildings and watch your tax dollars at work.
I have worked on the inside (the VA) and I could NOT agree with this article more. The useless deadwood, the crazies, the incompetent, the unqualified, and the just plain lazy THRIVE in these jobs. Most of what we call the “government” could be abolished TOMORROW without a single hitch in our giddyup. And there are AT LEAST 3 cabinet post that SHOULD be abolished.
