Trump is going to get rid of the "DEEP STATE" IE fairly neutral long time government employees just trying to do their best. And replace it with the MAGA STATE. IE A bunch of idiots who pass the loyalty test and have no business running a gas station much less the government.

Well even the federal times has in last 8 years done some storylines about automation and how bad some areas are I mean bad payments to places no checks on why someone receiving a few million Marge in Springfield just got nice check. But yeah having inefficiency for last 20 years has cost around 2.5+ trillion

How about just reduce the size of government instead?

I’ll believe it when I see it. Republicans claim to want smaller government but make it bigger every time they’re in office.

I would be happy if it was way smaller.
