During his time as president Donald Trump made big-scale changes in how government workers did their jobs creating confusion in many federal offices. His actions shook-up agency operations and made life harder for employee unions (which had been stable for decades before that)
The ex-presidents recent statements point to even more dramatic changes: his team is preparing new plans that would give him more control over federal staff after Jan 25. These ideas go way beyond what he tried in his first term — making todays government workers very nervous about their future
Federal employees remember how things worked from 17 to 21: workplace rules changed fast agency heads got replaced often and long-standing procedures just disappeared. Now Trump talks about bringing in new rules that would let him fire people easier move offices around and limit union power; which could affect how govt services work for everyone
