antagonize federal workers, hamstring their unions, freeze their pay, cut departmental budgets -- and then complain that government is broken.
honestly, I see no reason why that won't work.
Just in time for the midterm elections, Donald Trump has some bad news for 1.8 million Americans: he wants to scrap the pay raise they were scheduled to receive.
President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he was canceling pay raises for most federal employees that had been set to go into effect in January, citing government budget concerns.The president justified the move by arguing, “We must maintain efforts to put our nation on a fiscally sustainable course"
In a letter to House and Senate leaders, Trump wrote that he’d decided “across-the-board” pay raises as well as locality pay raises for civilian federal workers in 2019 would be frozen.

It is scary brilliant and simple. Republicans can't be trusted with the keys. They just suck at governing.
Waste of money, smart move by DJTAdded bonus of crying triggered libs
Surprised he announced this before midterms
Know lots of Fed workers.
Get overpaid to jerk off.
If anything efficiency should be enforced.
Looks like we got our first semen shield casualty.

Extremely overpaid jerk offs.
Looks like someone with a jerk off job weighs in.
President's staff?
Apparently, You People have not been listening to, watching the oligarchy/Repugs these past 40 years.
The propaganda has been, still is that GOVERNMENT IS THE PROBLEM. The message has been droning on relentlessly.
"Welfare Queens in Cadillacs)
Degrading, reducing govt until it can be drowned in a bath tub, etc, etc.
Busting govt (and all unions) (done),
crippling USPS (done),
reducing govt employee rights and salaries (done),
defunding govt (except MIC) into dysfuntionality (done),
intentionally MISgoverning (done) to screw employees, patients, women, blacks, brown, the poor, the environment, to discourage govt professionals into quitting to be replaced by Repug political incomeptent hacks.
destroying the social/economic safety net For The People (done)
so that govt prioritizes enriching, protecting, enabling the oligarchy (done)
America is ed and un able (done)
so Trash/Repug base LOVES the move to screw govt employees, since Trash's base is mostly economically precarious, while govt employees have good jobs, job security, retirement/saving plans, so Trash's base is thrilled to over govt employees, pull down to the level of Trash's cult
