Trump took office with a federal workforce at 2,810,000 workers.
Now it is 2,820,000 workers.
Added another ten thousand workers as he cut revenue. No wonder the debt is going sky high.
Data From The BLS Indicates Federal Workforce Larger Than Ever (open link and click '5Y' for the 5 year graph)
All the nonsense about shrinking government, draining the swamp, all hogwash.
You can see on the graph that he tried in the beginning, but lost his determination. He didn't follow through on his claims. He dropped the ball.
And he is spending more, too.
And the debt and the deficit have also gone up, up, up.
Trump lied.
Republicans were only pretending to care about small government and less spending when Obama was in office. Now we see they don't really care about big debts as long as they get big tax cuts for the rich. And they don't care if it destroys the country.
It is clear conservatives care more about money than anything else, including being patriotic to their country. Many conservatives will tell you very quickly, if you raise taxes on the rich, they will leave. Can you imagine that? These people care so little about their country they would gladly leave for a few dollars. And they are already rich. Amazing. Now that we have determined their patriotism can be bought the only detail to work out is how much.
