EMMITSBURG, Md. " Frank Davis saw a lot of waste during his decades in the federal government. In November, he voted for Donald Trump to get rid of it. So far, Davis likes a lot of what he has seen. "I'm probably gonna get shot for this, but he is doing what he said he was going to do," says Davis, who serves as mayor of this town of about 3,000 people in western Maryland, just south of Gettysburg, Pennsylvania.
In March, the Trump administration suddenly canceled in-person classes at the National Fire Academy here, which trains the United States' firefighters. Not only is the academy a big part of Emmitsburg's identity, but it also helps drive the local economy.
Davis says the administration is reviewing the academy's operations, and he is hopeful it will restore classes. If not, he says, he'll see the administration somewhat differently.
"It will change my outlook to say that they're not being fair," says Davis, who also serves as emergency medical services captain at the local firehouse, known as the Vigilant Hose Company. "They're just going in to cut and not caring what they cut."
He was happy when the cut funds for kids with cancer He was thrilled when they cut Pepfar and children will die in Africa He was joyful when they cut all of the medical research at HHS He was tickled pink when they fired thousands of government employees
They cut his bucket of slop?
"...they're not being fair..."
Here's hoping you lose EVERYTHING due to these cuts magat scum
