Sure he wants to shrink the size of the government. OR maybe he wants to replace them with loyalists.
This is part of their RAGE strategy. Retire All Governmental Employees. Starve the beast on Adderall.
Not only could this take an axe to the idea of a functional government, irreparably damage institutional knowledge and leave more room for incompetent fascist stooges, but 7 months pay is a huge waste of taxpayer money.
The speed at which russia is dismantling the US government is really something.
Surprised he's even offering to give money.
Destroying a democracy from within requires you to first purge the opposition, replace the leftovers with loyalists, and then call yourself the Chancellor.
The last time this happened my country fell in 18 days to the Nazis.
I see our war with the Russian Government is going well. Putin must be consuming a ton of champagne in celebration of his 'inside guy' destroying America. I wonder how much President Felon is getting paid?
That's FANTASTIC! And with all that Money Saved Somehow we can afford to give Billionaires MORE Tax Breaks!
It's a trap!
