Aren’t “rules and regulations” written by people under direction of a president, such that it is effectively the president’s work? Do they just stand on their own with no legal backing? Or do they want the president to be the one actually writing them all? Or is it his signature they want?

Undoing them isn’t just the same as undoing previous presidents’ work?

Elon is only in it for the money. Any "saved" money will go to his coffers.

There will be no reform, only destruction.

"...Mr. Trump can implement any number of “rules governing the competitive service” that would curtail administrative overgrowth, from large-scale firings to relocation of federal agencies out of the Washington area. Requiring federal employees to come to the office five days a week would result in a wave of voluntary terminations that we welcome: If federal employees don’t want to show up, American taxpayers shouldn’t pay them for the Covid-era privilege of staying home."

"We will make federal employees work 80 hours a week for no pay."
