About the only thing gotten right is the interpretation of WHY it's deliberately hard to get rid of a government employee unless they do something to deserve firing - to keep new leadership from sweeping in and basically replacing everyone with people more to the liking (read: will do what THEY want, not what's actually needed).
The thing is, the only people who might like what's being attempted are the people who are so all-in on Trump that they feel like the other side now needs to be entrapped and baited. If it's true, and it becomes clear that they're attempting to hand Democrats a literal No Win Scenario (Expensive Useless Wall or potentially hundreds of thousands being put out of work for no good reason than the Extreme Capitalist idea that Redundancy Is Bad), they're going to close off another segment of the population from voting Republican. Certainly that will be the case of most of the people they boot out the door as "redundant", or those whose land gets taken for that wall.
And I'm willing to bet, if the RIF actually happens? That they'll find out the hard way that a lot of those people weren't actually as redundant and useless as they think, although for them that's probably a FEATURE instead of a bug.
