Christie, who is governor of New Jersey and leads Trump's White House transition team, said the campaign was drawing up a list of federal government employees to fire if Trump defeats Democratic rival Hillary Clinton in the Nov. 8 presidential election.

Sounds good if we can get rid of a lot of bureaucrats and appointees. The appointees would be easy; but the bureaucrats are tied to unions —that will be a big road block to getting the pork trimmed.....unfortunately....
