Self-pruning will result in healthy growth.

[KansasGirl]

I was thinking the same thing!

[Trillian]

And celebrities that hate trump will leave the country too. /s

[OLDCU]

They never quit. They die first.

[DoughtyOne]

I’m still holding out for 85%.

[Rockitz]

Maybe I should have posted this under Political Humor? ;o)

[montag813]

Can a president even fire these “civil servants” at all? It seems all Trump could do is suspend them with pay indefinitely, which would get Marxists and racists off the job b ut not save any money.

[GraceG]

can we get that promise in writing from that 25%, i think a 25% reduction in fed gov “workers” would cause an immediate boom..

[Irish Eyes]

That is the best news I have heard since obama took office.

[big'ol_freeper]

First good reason to vote for the guy that I’ve seen

[Zarro]

It’s a win-win?

[ripley]

Imagine 25% less obnoxious, overbearing, imperious,
self-proclaimed-brilliant-intellectual Democrats leaving the government and liberating us from tyrannical adolescents.

What a pleasant thought.

IMHO

[gibsosa]

Just like all the Hollyweird jokers, full of hot air..

[Jeff Head]

Good... a lot of them are bottom feeders or liberal ideologues and need to be out anyway.

If Trump can facilitate that just by taking office...all the better.

[Stormdog]

Administrations come and administrations go, but the civil service grows on forever.

[SpaceBar]

I'm still holding out for 85%.

Agreed. And that remaining 15% is being generous.

[Mark17]

pure BS....no way they would leave that high paying job with lifetime benefits. No way.

Affirmative sir. It would be nice to see 50% of them go, but it's not going to happen.
I was in the USAF under Jimmy Carter. I surely wanted to quit, but I didn't.

[PapaBear3625]

25 percent of federal employees fear that Trump will have them indicted for their activities under Obama.

[navymom1]

Another positive of a Trump presidency.

[Aleya2Fairlie]

Well over twenty percent would be fired. That includes the fourteen percent that would want to leave.
