    Well that's true. I had to dig up this information myself. There has been no story dug up by investigative journalism. I am the reporter here. This story has never been broken. Most Trump fans probably still believe he made government smaller.

    The number of government workers rises and falls, depending on the need, Snowflake.

    The smallest government is the best government.

    “Micromanagement can be a very useful tool. However, like most other tools, it needs to be in the hands of a good mechanic to be useful.

    In the hands of an incompetent or poor mechanic, tools designed to make work easy can instead make work miserable, if not impossible.

    This is also true of government at every level. Congress, legislatures and administrative agencies are alike in that they all push legislation, rules, and policies that govern more and more of every facet of our lives.

    Truth be known, this micromanagement by government is the exact antithesis of our Founding Fathers. Our Founding Fathers believed in personal freedoms, smaller governments and, if anything, more power at the state and local level than at the federal level.

    The writers of the Constitution understood that every law, rule and regulation takes away another small piece of our personal freedom.

    While the Founding Fathers understood government was necessary to provide for the common good, safety and welfare of the nation, they wanted as small a federal government as possible. That is why the federal government’s powers are enumerated; these are the areas they understood only a national federal government could undertake.”

    It is always very sad to realize when you have been conned.

    Trump announced he was going to drain the swamp.

    He has done no such thing.

    Many crucial positions have been left unfilled or have only an 'acting' director.

    Government is larger than it was when Trump took office.

    Trump lied.

    Gotta face the facts!
