If I recall Trump initiated a project to review all of the Federal government agencies. The suggestion was that many could go as they duplicated State functions and many could be eliminated/reduced via consolidation.

Basically, the illegitimate Federal gov can be shrunk by 95% or more, but then it employs the most people in America who will have to find real work.

Perhaps not that much but a very significant reduction would be possible and a big impact on the need to raise taxes. All the debt is really supporting all the non jobs, MIC and welfare programs - unsustainable. The US post WW2 had a manufacturing base and dominated every industrial sector.
