You know when he talks about government waste and all that, yes, Im behind it, McCabe said. I believe there is a lot of stuff in the government that needs fixing. And thats part of the reason why I actually wanted to work for the government, actually. To help change. Help change the things that are wrong in the world, you know? I thought that someone with his business acumen would have come in with a fine-tooth comb and actually found it instead of coming in with a wrecking ball and destroying peoples lives for no reason.
