Amen to that!
His 147 golf outings since he took office paid for by the Taxpayers.
Countless 2020 reelection rallies all across America paid for by the Taxpayers.
His and his family busting the Secret Service Budget for the whole year by August of 2017.
He is a budget hypocrite of the First Order.
But the Donny Deplorable Dummy’s love it!

Besides that so many of them speak other languages, they probably aren’t real Americans.

So, on the one hand, Trump brags about rising wages. Then, on the other hand, he tells his federal employees: “sorry, no rising wages for you.”
Classic Trump.
Trump doesn’t control their wages. Congress can give them a raise.

The Judiciary finally got disgusted with Congress and made sure they would get their pay raises for all time. Unfortunately for the Civil Service, they don’t have that kind of power.

Go down to the congressional cafeteria and the folks slinging hash that they don’t need any more money and they should suck up a 25% pay cut.

Grimalken:
Promise for a raise was kept back in 2017:
President Donald Trump is exercising his authority to give federal civilian employees and uniformed service members a pay raise effective Jan. 1, 2018.
Most civilian federal employees will receive an average raise of 1.4 percent, with an additional 0.5 percent adjusted in locality pay for a total of a 1.9 percent.
“I have determined that for 2018, across-the-board pay increases will be 1.4 percent and locality pay increases will average 0.5 percent, resulting in an overall average increase of 1.9 percent for civilian federal employees,” Trump wrote in a letter to congressional leaders. “I will specify locality pay percentages for each locality pay area by executive order before the first pay period in January 2018. These decisions will not materially affect our ability to attract and retain a well-qualified federal workforce.”
Members of the military will receive an average raise of 2.1 percent starting next year.
So if Donald Trump had done nothing about Federal Pay Raises in 2017 the Federal Employees would have received a bigger raise in 2018.
Promise kept!
In August, Trump formally announced his alternative pay plan to increase pay by 1.9 percent, a requirement to prevent a much more generous raise from automatically kicking in as a result of the 1990 Federal Employees Pay Comparability Act.
“A pay increase of this magnitude is not warranted, and federal agency budgets could not accommodate such an increase while still maintaining support for key federal priorities such as those that advance the safety and security of the American people,” Trump wrote in his August statement.

See that heat map in your link? Shows the intensity of federal worker concentration. Which part is darkest? Also, would you say that heat map reflects population density for the entire US? Hint: it’s doesn’t. Why? because 21% of the federal workforce in the DC metro area does not represent 21% of the US working population. In fact, if you indexed federal worker percentage by state to population by state, you’d see the DC metro area is off the charts, i.e., the federal working pool is heavily skewed to that area compared to the rest of the US. Get it?
I get it that you don’t know how to apply statistics.

Yes they are. Their locality pay adjustments are getting slashed. Their wages will go down.
THose mail room clerk bureaucrats and cafeteria works - cut pay…park office staff - cut pay…cafateria workers - cut pay…court clerks - cut pay…court stenographers - cut pay…court office staff - cut pay.
Filthy bureaucrats deserve it, right?
What a ■■■■■■■ twisted joke.
