Pretty sure that extreme pruning of the various government staff bloated agencies will come after the election. Just too much chaos will be unleashed if he wipes out decades of bureaucratic power creep in a series of executive actions to risk it before his second term is secured. He already did the ground work with the government shutdown and the studies they ran which found huge improvements in efficiency by cutting the staff to the bone and sending the dead weight home on vacation.

I wish they would re-populate where the headquarters are for these agencies and departments. It makes no sense for their headquarters to be in Washington DC/Virginia. Put some of those agencies in fly over country and you'll get more responsive and representative government agencies.

Or better yet kick it all back to the states like it should be. The national government should be concerned with international matters and not being a nanny for the states overriding their own states rights.
