✍️ Donald Trump is attempting to dismantle the US civil service, which he sees as an impediment to his policy goals, by buying out federal employees, firing inspectors general, and stripping job protections.
👉 Trump is attempting to buy out federal employees and replace them with loyalists 👉 He has fired over a dozen inspectors general and is attempting to strip job protections from nonpartisan employees 👉 The civil service has a long history of promoting efficiency and impartiality 👉 Eliminating the civil service would lead to greater incompetence, higher costs, and decreased trust in government
