Shrinking capital: DeSantis vows to reduce federal ‘footprint’ in DC by half if elected president | Just The News

Seeking to invigorate his GOP presidential campaign, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is vowing to reduce by half the government’s footprint in Washington D.C. by eliminating agencies and programs and moving jobs out of the nation’s capital so federal workers can be closer to the voters they serve.

“We’ve had this massive accumulation of power in D.C., and it’s been really, really toxic,” DeSantis told Just the News in a wide-ranging televised interview which aired Wednesday night. “So we want to take power out of D.C. and shift it around the country.”

Wonderful idea but sadly unlikely. But! Maybe Trump will be called to meet his maker, or go to jail, or something. You never know.
