Thursday on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” host Sean Hannity urged the Trump administration to “purge” the holdovers from the prior Obama administration.
Hannity described them as saboteurs and warned they were”hell-bent” on destroying Trump’s presidency.
"Let’s go back to 1861. President Abraham Lincoln — he created, you know, a team of rivals, a so-called team of rivals, a cabinet of rivals, including adversaries that he ran against in the Republican primary. But while president Lincoln sought to unify his party through cabinet selections, he also executed an extensive government purge. He fired over 75 percent, nearly 1,200 people out of 1,500 bureaucrats that worked in the executive branch who President Lincoln feared could be disloyal.

ReplyDeleteRelatively normal procedure here, HANNITY had nothing to do with it! If the media (both sides) keeps salivating at every potential story, Trump will eventually have the big one and Pence will be our next Prez!
ReplyDeleteCareful what you wish for Libs...early hindsight says you should let this all play out long-term (4 years)!
WTH is he waiting for!
ReplyDelete1134 weeding takes time. It's not done in a minute, but agree he needs to step up. Thinking he may wait for recess to make appointments because Democrats are being spoiled brats. It's a necessity at this point. Only reason I'm glad they're cutting out in April.
ReplyDeleteall of the previous administrations appointees should have been dismissed as of noon on january 20, 2017
ReplyDeletePurging them and shipping them all to Siberia !!!
ReplyDeleteI agree they should go not contributing anything with their slant on the election, there are more people who would really contribute, and cleaning up is needed, long over due.
