Trump's change of course: tariffs and layoffs - who falls by the wayside?

While US President Donald Trump continues to pursue his course to reduce the government apparatus, the European economy threatens to suffer from the tensions between the USA and the EU. According to reports, at least two million federal employees have been put under pressure to voluntarily terminate in order to increase the government's efficiency. This focused particularly on when a federal judge in Massachusetts extended the original deadline for the decision -making process of the employees, which temporarily contaminated the efforts to restructure the government of the government, such as tagesschau.de reported.

In view of Trump's threats to raise special tariffs to the EU, the German Federal Chancellor Olaf Scholz at the same time expressed concerns about the possible impact on the German economy. Scholz emphasized that customs duties do not use anyone and that the EU Commission was willing to react quickly. These statements are made in the context of increasingly critical statements about Trump's aggressive trade policy and the geopolitical challenge, especially with regard to Trump's considerations of the occupation of Greenland, which belongs to the NATO and EU nation Denmark. Scholz sees the need to stand up for smaller partners such as Denmark, which underlines a clear attitude towards the US threats, such as vienna.at

Trump and the fear of layoffs

The trump's termination offensive, which is particularly valid for long -standing employees, arouses great concern. Former employees of the FBI and CIA reported worrying attempts at intimidation, which led to fear of losing their professional existence. "Nobody experienced anything like this before," said Otis Johnson, a representative of the American state office association, and criticized the methods of Trump's administration. This strategy to increase the efficiency through layoffs and the occupation of their positions with Trump-Loyal new employees is closely linked to the so-called Project 2025 of the Heritage Foundation, the Trump's procedure is precisely planning and strategically supporting.

The authority for government efficiency, which is led by Elon Musk, is intended to insert young talents from companies such as SpaceX and Tesla into the various ministries in order to tighten the interpreted and inefficient government, according to Carter. However, the methods and the legal implications of this strategy remain questionable what the US policy leads to an uncertain future. At the latest now it becomes clear that Trump is fighting hard bandages to consolidate both his political course and his loyalists in the government apparatus.
