Will the DOGE Reductions Stick?

“Thanks to DOGE, the number of federal employees has been reduced by at least 270,000 since January [2025]. A decline that large has not happened since the military demobilizations of World War II,” reports the CATO Institute.

Good news, if true.

My question: Will those federal cuts automatically reverse when Trump leaves office in 3 years, since they arose mainly from the executive branch?

If any Democratic candidate wins in 2028, he or she will wreck America in 2 weeks, and not just fiscally. Plus 2026 midterm elections remain a concern.

We have irritated the rattlesnake without killing it. That’s why we need to focus on more than just elections.
