The Official "Damned Trump" Thread: Phase II

[Alan V]

The rule is that if you find anything even vaguely negative about the US it must be true.  Ask our resident pseudo-intellectual troll.

The whole DOGE thing is either paranoid delusion in action or, more likely, bullshit.  Our government already has mechanisms to report and correct waste and corruption.  However, Trump and Musk propose that the whole government is riddled with waste and corruption, and that they can save taxpayers a trillion dollars of their tax money by exposing and removing it.

Now for the bullshit interpretation.  They really know there isn't that much waste and corruption, but they are saying so as a cover for their real motives, as propaganda.  They want to selectively remove Democratic initiatives from spending approved by Congress.  They are, in fact, trying to delegitimize the whole Democratic party by saying that any Democratic spending is mere waste and corruption.  No wonder they are not going about their efforts by legal means, through Congress where such efforts can be debated and approved by the careful weighing of evidence.  No wonder they call the courts corrupt for trying to stop them.

They are fascists after all.
