President Trump is rarely accused of subtlety. Yet, evidence abounds of his ability to find the nuances in situations many of his detractors miss; and, having done so, confounding them by acting to rectify the problem.
Consider the president’s recent executive order offering 2 million federal employees buyouts covering approximately eight months of salary and benefits. Per the New York Post:
The ‘golden age’ of America now comes with a golden parachute… White House aides expect between 5% and 10% of federal workers to take the deal—which is projected to save taxpayers $100 billion a year, according to Axios, which first reported on the plan.
This action by President Trump was imperative. Consider the following trio of recent news items which, can also be viewed as separate informational items, each capable of breeding outrage and/or paranoia depending upon one’s partisan leanings. Yet a deeper understanding of the sinews linking them should instill in all self-respecting Americans, regardless of party, a gnawing, growing sense of the disorder besetting our constitutional republic.
