    Step 1 of Project 2025 is to fire all the federal workers. Step 2 is to replace them with Trump loyalists.

    Problem is that Step 2 is fraught with so many natural road blocks that it’s completely insane to think it could work. Hiring that many people all at once is nuts. Simply entering them into the payroll system takes effort. Oh, you already fired all the payroll entry people? How is that going to work?

    Nope, they just drowned the federal government in a bathtub while leaving the tyrannical parts smoking a cigar the next room over.

      Step 2 can take as long as they need it to take though. They never said replace them in equal number. Some departments won’t ever return. The IRS for example. Trump wouldn’t hire more. He just handed all the rich people the gift of cheating on taxes with no consequences.

      That’s why Project 2025 is right on track.

        They’re quickly discovering they need certain people. Like the nuclear oversight people they fired. They don’t know what they are doing, and the plan cannot work.

          The plan is to destabilize the US, cuz the people in charge of the US are domestic enemies to the US and its constitution. (Yo military peeps - sound familiar? Do your fucking job.)

          The ‘scramble to rehire critical staff’ bit is pure show. The point is for that to fail.

      Yeah, they’re going down p2025 line by line.

      This particular strategy of firing all feds and replacing them with loyalists simply doesn’t make sense UNLESS they’re for sure planning on squatting the WH long term. Otherwise, what would be the point of having a federal workforce full of trump loyalists after 2028?
