No, but we do need a General Clown Administration. They should be tightly controlled and regulated!

The Federal government has gotten very bold on us. Well paid and bold.

If the GSA did the job they are supposed to do then I think it's a very worthwhile department. Unfortunately in my dealings with them (which has been weekly for the last two years) there is way too much red tape, difficult to understand paperwork, and processes that involve using their outdated software to sell them anything at all. The dept. could save SO much money streamlining some processes and training their contracting officers better - but they don't.

It seems that POTUS is the King of hypocrisy. He calls out for accountability in the GSA case, but has no issue with spending our money on 25 Secret Service Agents to guard his daughter on a Spring Break Trip to Mexico.
