President Donald Trump signed an executive order aiming to trim government costs, saying the goal is "to see where money is being wasted and how services can be improved."

The defense department wastes over $150 billion a year. So go cut there

AWESOME CUTTING OUT USELESS BUREAUCRATIC GOVERNMENT WASTE

[radwulfeboraci]

So now out comes the bulldozer to plow through ANYTHING non-Republican regardless if it is working or not. Gotta get this done now because they've figured out that people are going to be really pissed about TrumpDon'Care and take it out on them in 2018.

too bad he cannot sign an executive order to get rid of CNN, CSNBC, ABC, NBC, etc.

With all the cuts, veterans will have no jobs after they leave the armed forces

Unexpected consequence: Departments all report that Impeaching Trump would make them more efficient and productive.

The election is over and the American people have spoken. I love our new President. I am already seeing more jobs and the market is up!! Bring on the tax cuts!!

[Rocketpower]

nothing for the government employees, everything goes to the 1%, suckers. buhahahaha,

[angrymisanthropistfreak]

Yay! Another order that benefits JUST the working class. And it really grinds my gears when Trump says ANYTHING about taxes.

[TurdDoodlesworth]

When is Trump going to cut the $30 Million is takes to maintain his 'wife' in Trump Tower in NYC?

[pjt]

Cut spending to climate research so the taxpayer can fund your vacations...

[edwardlimney]

so "we're going to do something very very special" and "we're already seeing results"

[tracysusanklein]

I would be leery of a competent administration attempting to this. Needless to say I'm terrified seeing this admistration set about to destroy the government.

[dr.disaster]

The best this nutjob can do to cut government cost is to resign.

How to shut down components of government that may go against what you are trying to push

[joshsimpson]

The media needs to invest in their cameras. We have technology that lets you take a fucking high definition photograph without that fucking clicking noise.

[foundscott]

Couldn't he just send an email to those departments to tell them this, and not put on this show

[Georgeeboy]

It's ok guys! we're like smart people!

[benkogenko]

What ever you do don't do anything to NASA

[philliplopez]
