Um, Mission Accomplished? From the Post:
Nearly a year into his takeover of Washington, President Trump has made a significant down payment on his campaign pledge to shrink the federal bureaucracy, a shift long sought by conservatives that could eventually bring the workforce down to levels not seen in decades.
By the end of September, all Cabinet departments except Homeland Security, Veterans Affairs and Interior had fewer permanent staff than when Trump took office in January — with most shedding many hundreds of employees, according to an analysis of federal personnel data by The Washington Post.
Does the Washington Post know that even members of #NeverTrump will like this?
I wonder how this reads to progressives and/or journos, because I can pretty much guarantee you that it reads to Trump supporters and even NeverTrump conservatives like myself as "promise kept," and a good thing. https://t.co/d9ZAz7I946
