Federal MAGA voters getting the axe.

I was skeptical that there would be very many of these, but in fact there are.  I should have known it.

Not firings.  No, Federal (and State) employees who voted for Trump, or in Wyoming for members of the Freedom Caucus. 

They were always voting to fire themselves.  Did they not realize it?

Well, The naiveite would be amusing, but for it being so tragic and short sighted.  Somehow these people believed that the merits of their work would save them from this fate.

Why?

It's not about the quality of their work. They're MAGA cannon fodder.

Trump voter here. Mass firing probationary employees makes no sense. Forest Service, 26 yr old exemplary 2-year veteran 'probationary' employee GIS tech let go with no warning today. Along with a timber cutter, the lowest paid, most profitable employee they have. This is stupid.

 seriously, why the low hanging fruit? An EXEMPLARY 26 yr old GIS tech with the Forest Service for 2 years, intern converted to full time, one month shy of being off probation, fired on a Zoom call no warning, sent home in tears. Now I'm questioning my vote.

You are losing some of your strongest supporters by attacking the low-hanging fruit (me, my family). 26 yo hardworking 2 yr employee of USFS let go with no warning on Zoom. My hard-working son witnessed this, and is disgusted & I am embarrassed. This is NOT how you save America.

Son told me of a 26 yr old exemplary GIS tech at FS who was 2 yra into 'probationary' let go on a Zoom call. He was very depressed about it. This is not the way, taking out people regardless of performance. I don't understand why it has to be one extreme or the other.
