Trump Supporters Fired from Government Jobs Speak Out on Regret

(Thechieftainspear) – In a sweeping move by the Trump administration’s newly formed Department of Government Efficiency—headed by Elon Musk—more than 62,000 federal employees were reportedly dismissed throughout February. The layoffs have affected workers across multiple agencies, including the Department of Defense, Social Security Administration, USAID, CIA, Department of Justice, and the Department of Agriculture.

While job cuts in government aren’t unusual, what’s making waves is the fact that many of the affected workers were Trump supporters—some of whom are now voicing their frustrations online. The popular r/LeopardsAteMyFace subreddit has become a hub for these former employees to share their shock and disappointment.

Among those speaking out:

• A military veteran and longtime Trump supporter who was recently dismissed from his role at the VA, struggling to understand how his loyalty led to his job loss.
• A civil servant who proudly displayed a Trump campaign sign outside her home, only to find herself suddenly unemployed.
• A young Trump voter whose partner’s federal job was abruptly cut, leaving their household in financial limbo.
• A former government worker who once championed Trump’s policies but is now organizing protests in Washington after losing his job.
• A self-described “die-hard” Trump supporter looking for advice after being laid off from the General Services Administration.
• A former federal employee who now regrets their vote, openly wishing they had supported Kamala Harris instead.
• A longtime government worker, who voted for Trump three times, furious at the growing narrative that federal employees are “lazy” and “expendable.”
• A newly unemployed Trump voter, expressing frustration over the administration’s apparent disregard for the widespread damage the job cuts have caused.

While some continue to defend the administration’s push for a leaner government, others see this as a harsh wake-up call about political loyalty and job security. The backlash is growing—will it have an impact? Let us know your thoughts in the comments .
