Fired veterans feel betrayed, including some who voted for Donald Trump - Business Standard

Quick Summary:

The mass firing of federal employees since Trump took office in January is pushing out veterans who make up 30 per cent of the nation's federal workforce.

I think a lot of other veterans voted the same way, and we have been betrayed, said Hooven, who was fired in February from a Virginia medical facility for veterans.

Barely three months later, he's now unemployed and says he feels betrayed by the president's dramatic downsizing of the federal government that cost him his job.
