Last June, President Donald Trump fulfilled a campaign promise by signing a bipartisan bill to make it easier to fire employees of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The law, a rare rollback of the federal government’s strict civil-service job protections, was intended as a much-needed fix for an organization widely perceived as broken.
Has Trump and those that he appointed to run government agencies been more vindictive and ideological than other president’s and agency secretaries have been?
Unquestionably.
Republicans are the enemy.
They have declared war on the Left. And their Left is pretty far to the Right.
