I’m not griping. Well, not much.
Even if all he did was to stop the growth of regulations from the rate that Obama sustainedthat would be worth while.

But as I said: I’d love to see an ax swinging maniac over a surgeon’s scalpel.
I'm with you there, Rurudyne! I like it. It is an amazing start, but...to really get cleared out...we are going to need a new Rhetorical Tool: I'll call it "Rurudyne's Axe".
Rurudyne's Axe
noun
Word Origin:
"Rurudyne's Axe", 2018, used in online discussion of methods to reduce government bureaucracy. Rurudyne was a person frequenting a popular conservative website Free Republic, first used 4/24/2018.
Rurudyne's Axe definition:
A rhetorical tool that favors the use of overwhelming and encompassing force (implying that collateral destruction is an acceptable byproduct due to the seriousness of an unaddressed issue) using a figurative image of an "axe swinging mainiac" to address a problem perceived to be out of control or unsolvable, usually contrasted with slight, small volume rhetorical tool (commonly "surgeon's scalpel") which does not actually resolve or even reduce the problem, but only portrays the effort (for public consumption) to do so.
Usage:
"The issue of out of control government legislation was so serious that invoking Rurudyne's Axe was the only hope to resolve the issue."
