1. What's crappy is that he did it after having a higher rate proposed (and agreed to?)

For everyone's info, Fed. employees have received small pay raises for many years; it's fairly typical.

2. As of Sept 2019 the yearly inflation rate was 1.7%

So pay is not keeping up with inflation....so in effect orange lardass is cutting their pay.

4. Pretty much has been the game plan for the Republican Party for decades

and sad to say,we had a Dem do the same.

1.7% inflation which was a total lie and a pay raise of 1%. Austerity my friend,this is what it looks like,do more for less. Yupper,eat it baby,that is the real message.
