>Back in March, Schumer said: “A shutdown gives Trump and his minions keys to the city and the country … complete freedom as to what parts of the government to fund and what parts not.”
>Now Trump is using those keys to unlock one of his biggest campaign promises: draining the swamp and taking power back from Washington’s permanent ruling class. Conservatives have always wanted to do this, but thanks to Schumer, it is finally happening.
>The Washington swamp is deep and crowded. The federal government is the largest employer in the United States, with more than 2.4 million federal employees, and they are mainly concentrated in the Washington, D.C., area. These bureaucrats receive nearly double the compensation on average that private sector workers get, and they are overwhelmingly Democrat, making D.C. much bluer than any state in the union. Federal jobs cost taxpayers $384 billion each year, helping to put four of the 10 wealthiest counties in the United States in the D.C. area. And the higher concentration of money and Democrats has only accelerated the bloat.
>In just the last five years, the federal government added more than 200,000 jobs and nearly doubled the cost of the federal workforce. Yet despite this growth in the number of federal workers, the public’s trust in the federal government remains near an all-time low.
>Since the shutdown began on Oct. 1, Trump and his team have set about making Schumer’s worst fears a reality. President Trump is using his authority under a government shutdown to keep the most essential parts of government open while keeping the most wasteful parts closed.
