so you'll get some token random agencies shut down or merged, nothing much beyond that in terms of the swamp
if he appoints directors with a clear non-retarded vision to places like the FDA though, that's where something useful can happen

federal bureaucracy is ~3M people FYI in the WDMV area
nationwide adds another ~5-10M, though that's harder to figure out because a lot are state/local bureaucrats not federal ones
here's the people that caused mass suicide
