He would NOT be firing left and right. Have you ever heard of the federal civil service protections? We definitely need to look at cost/effectiveness of federal programs. Nice that he would not be beholden to donors.
A billion dollar president has many holdings. Blind trust or no, when that president makes unpopular choices with business, those businesses stop ‘doing business’ with the blind trust and the Billionaire President is suddenly poorer with his legacy trashed.
It’s blackmail with a different set of tools. He is probably more susceptible than the rest because of his wealth.
lol..
Is it impossibly to dramatically reduce the size and scope of government waste/programs?
Isn't that what the conga-line of career government politicians have told us about our lawless borders for the past 3 decades?
Maybe Trump would take a look at that. From what I've heard, it's like pulling teeth to get rid of an incompetent civil service worker. Sounds a bit like tenure. The whole thing needs a business approach and needs to be privatized if you will, or at least run like a business. It's so ingrained and corrupt now that it's going to take a guy like Trump to start the ball rolling.
