Survey: 35% of federal workers may consider leaving their jobs if Trump wins
Hot Air ^ | October 25,2015 | JAZZ SHAW

Of course, for many conservatives hearing these survey results, their first response is likely along the lines of, “Good riddance. Can we start with the workers at the VA?” That’s not just anecdotal either. A different survey previously highlighted in the same outlet showed that a significant majority of Trump voters aren’t exactly wild about federal workers to begin with.

Donald Trump supporters do not like federal employees very much, though the feeling does not appear to be mutual.

Trump supporters are nearly united in their frustration with federal government policies, according to a new survey from Rasmussen Reports, with 96 percent saying they are “angry” at them. Just 36 percent of Hillary Clinton supporters said the same.

About six in 10 backers of the Republican nominee say the federal government rarely or never does the right thing. Nine in 10 disagree that federal government is a “protector of individual liberty.”

So if anyone is looking to use this survey as a reason to scare Trump voters away from the polls it’s likely to backfire. Most of those federal workers aren’t going anywhere, and if they did there wouldn’t be too many tears shed over it in conservative circles.

If this doesn’t help the GOTV effort in flyover country, nothing will.

I WISH we could save that much money simply by electing him. But these guys are like the people saying they will leave the country.

Meh. Talk is cheap.

An excellent start. (I worked as an attorney in the fed govt right out of law school. You could easily get rid of 50 percent of the people there and not even notice).

Good start, probably need to get rid of 75%, but this will help if they leave voluntarily.

In the Obama economy no doubt they’ll have a wide selection of job options - all 20 hour work weeks at various eateries. Not quite the benefits they’re accustomed to, but I encourage them to follow through. Hope it works out for them....
