Trump going to leave open hundreds of jobs in administration
US President Donald Trump acknowledges that there remain hundreds of unfilled jobs in his administration, but says “they’re unnecessary to have.”
In an interview with Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends” that aired Tuesday, Trump says he has no intention of filling many of the open positions.
He says, “I say, ‘What do all these people do?’ You don’t need all those jobs.”
Trump also says that some are looking to criticize him for eliminating those positions, but he adds, “That’s not a bad thing. That’s a good thing. We’re running a very good, efficient government.”
