Washington President Donald Trump on Monday justified a smaller-than-anticipated proposed pay raise for civilian federal workers by citing"national emergency or serious economic conditions," despite his frequent statements that the nation's economy is booming.
Trump proposed that pay raises for civilian federal workers be limited to 1% in 2021 in a bid to"maintain efforts to put our Nation on a fiscally sustainable course." He described a pay increase above 1% as"inappropriate.""This alternative pay plan decision will not materially affect our ability to attract and retain a well qualified Federal workforce," the President wrote.An across-the-board 2.
America register to vote and do vote so we don’t have to put up with this conman!😡🤬
What happened to the great economy, realDonaldTrump ? Hey, SenRickScott, any comment seeing as you're always commending Trump on how hard he's working and how great he's making the country? You're both huge jokes.
Did he file for bankruptcy yet?
gop voters like the US government lying to the people all the time about everything.
ableraces Yeah but stingy means more left unallocated to be stolen.
Starting a war and declaring martial law comes next.
These are the raving of a mad dictator.
SethAbramson Hey Trump, you liar !! Which is it ?
Mexcan6 He brags constantly about Obama's economy going strong, so why won't IMPEACHED potus give them a raise?
Gotta pay forthose private prisons and walls.
SethAbramson Economy is booming except we have to lower civil (inflation adjusted) workers salaries because the economy is horrible
His priorities are out of whack, kinda like his golf swing.
Maybe there’s more than one economy One for Trump’s big backers and one for the rest of the country
Oh cool! So he’s going to save money by cutting back on his trips to his own properties then, right?!
Which is it, Trump? It can't be both, so pick one.
Here we go lol
Trump lying ? The shock of it all 🙄
Maybe they don’t deserve what they anticipate.
They can get a free tour of 'the wall'. Thats where their payraise is.
Cannot wait to see him voted out and possibly off to prison!
SethAbramson Here’s an idea. Stop playing golf. Or pay for it yourself.
SethAbramson That’s because he is a pathological liar. It doesn’t matter what it is. He lies about it just to say something.
That is one of the pitfalls of never being truthful, often the new lies contradict the old lies.
This guy lost it he must go.
Oh yes. What happened to that national emergency that was used to justify the fictitious wall that hadn't been built? Anyone seen the rampaging hoards lately?
You want more debt
CNN think they’re so clever! So we’re not voting for trump because these workers didn’t get a raise. Seriously?
Outlaw billionaires
Always research for the truth. Don’t be the uneducated.
well, even civilian federal workers are paid with tax dollars so thank you president trump for being responsible with our money, unlike the democrats who spend like teens with dads credit card
Bureaucrats should resign and get real jobs.
Lol.... Ahh so gov isn't getting 10% again
So, he didn’t cut their pay, but cut the amount of their increase, right?
Or maybe the reporters are paid by the oligarchs guving out altered or fake news
LivingWillie Can't have it both ways. And the truth is, when the economy really crashes, and it's going to, it's gonna be BAD.
Trumps that conman that takes a bunch a deposits to repair old ladies Hurricane damaged roofs and takes off with the money.
Put your trust on out President, he knows what he is doing. Don't be too noisy like inspectors no good.
so...is america in recession then?
