Trump needs to demand change at state and local level. DOGE for everyone.

Trump should withhold all federal funds to state and local governments until they implement their own version of DOGE. There is just as much waste and corruption there. I have never met a government employee worth their pay. Throw them all to the curb and privatize as much as possible. It's much easier to pull an underperforming contractor than a government employee.

No, Trump does not need to micromanage all 50 states. There are enough circumstances warranting his involvement as it is (ie CA fires), he doesn't need to micromanage state budgets.
I assure you that you have.
How's that working out in the prison system where the incentive is to lock people up?
Some of you with your idiotic hatred toward government workers have lost your minds.

My bad. I'm sure you're worth every penny.

We need to demand that change, not Trump

Agreed. I was recently looking around town and at our previously beautiful city park and was disgusted by the disrepair and lack of upkeep despite having plenty of full time employees to maintain things. Most days they don't work at all. It's dropped off as our last mayor used them in the oil fields, and the new one is trying, but old habits die hard and the city council is full of dipshits.

Feds and States need to worry about the Federal government.
The States manage their own affairs.

Not when you are taking federal funds. You sound like a spoiled college kid that thinks their parent can't put stipulations on the money they give you.

what about the states that pay the feds?

You’ve never met a teacher, professor, cop, firemen, soldier, librarian, EMT, worth their pay? You don’t think anyone at LSU is worth their pay? This says more about you than anything.

They are all untouchable due to unions, tenure, government complacency or any combination of the above. So, no.

Yes, police officers, firemen, and soldiers that suck at their jobs are untouchable, unless they die on the job of course.

Trump has his hands full at the federal level.
The number of federal employees has grown by 40% since the start of covid. Let that sink in.

Insane crazy numbers

Most paramedics/EMT work for private companies. Firemen are quite efficient and would likely do just fine privatized. Cops are revenue agents first and foremost. Something the founding fathers were absolutely against. Most are just roided up, tatted up, psychopaths. Good riddance. The founding fathers gave us the 2nd Amendment in the Bill of Rights. They didn't give of us cops. That should tell you something. Stop being a tittie baby and wanting the government to protect you.

What you suggest makes a mockery of the concept of federalism. Why not have Trump also just select governors as well? What you suggest borders on totalitarianism and real federal tyranny.
