Discussion DOGE thread

[FelixDeCat]

This thread is for all things related to Dept of Gov Efficiency run by Musk.

I'll start. He suggested getting rid of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. The bureau created in the wake of the 2008 financial crises. This is a horrible idea. The CFPB protects consumers from abuse by big business.

 

[JTsyo]

Last time they got rid of the pandemic readiness team and nothing bad happened, right? /s

 

[Brainonska511]

More like advisory office, since departments can only created by acts of Congress.

Anyway, Musk is a moron, and I don't know why people think he knows anything about anything.

 

[FelixDeCat]

Right now Musk is second only to Trump in near daily announcements regarding potential changes.

You're getting just what you voted for…

When a 🤡 moves into a palace, the 🤡 doesn’t become a king. The palace turns into a circus.

When "They" turn out to be your guys, embrace the conspiracy. Many who thought themselves defenders of the Constitution/Republic, embraced the dark side at the first chance.

Right now Musk is second only to Trump in near daily announcements regarding potential changes. It's like he thinks HE is president or co-president.

Trump likes the attention to be focused on himself, no one else. I expect Musk to be one of the first people Trump fires, maybe even before the inauguration.

This is what @FelixDeCat voted for and has always wanted. He's just trolling. Really what this is about is that while he loves this shit, he's just really really jealous of Elon.

False claim. I did not vote for Trump in this election and you already knew that. If you were trying troll me, I would like to suggest then that you are one that is jealous.

I think behind all that angry lashing out is a frightened and hurt little boy crying out for attention. All that rage full bluster is there to mask the feeling he doesn’t deserve any real love. You can tell him he does but he will turn his anger on you if you do. Many are too hurt themselves to handle that.

The patient may die of snake bite before the anti-venom arrives from Iraq. A saying

“I vow to save all sentient beings.” A Buddhist prayer.

I wish it would be so, but I think Trump is realizing he ain't that with it anymore, and is using Musk as a crutch. This will not turn out well.

I've seen many people claim that Musk will be gone quite quickly, and IMO it's just wishful thinking. Sadly, I think that he's here to stay, and the average American will pay the price.

Both Trump and Musk have very strong opinions on things, so yes it will likely be a strained relationship at times. Musk has likely realized he can never be president because the Constitution prevents it (he wasn't born here). Therefore he has to settle for the next best thing, advisor and soothsayer to Trump.

 

[sandorski]

Don't worry guys. Musk has lost more money than most of you combined will ever have seen. He knows what financial hardship is unlike any other......in the sense he's never known it at all.

You have voted for and supported the Republican party your whole life. Not like you have to go physically vote in Texas since you already know who is going to win.

Trump is merely the end design of what you've been voting for this whole time.

These are the fruits of your labor.

And this is why the "left" LOSES elections..

YOU AND YOUR FUCKING PURITY TESTS & IDENTITY POLITICS.

You can be a piece of shit on the right but at least you're their teammate. They even dedicate UNITE THE RIGHT rallys with torches dedicated to Unity vs your purity tests.

And you've unknowingly given the best example of NIMBY LIBERALISM.

Oh really?

Why don't you share with us all the moderate and anti-republican platform policies Felix Is all about now.

Maybe I missed them I haven't seen them

 

[pmv]

I'm confident he'll improve the efficiency and effectiveness of government just as he has for Twitter.

Just pointing out that the efficiency dept. has two leaders ...

I think the #1 thing we learned from this election is our base is not big enough to win since it couldn't beat a 38 times convicted rapist who wanted to destroy our economy and healthcare.

When you can accept that the first thing you need to do is go see a shrink first for your narcissism and visions of grandeur and always assigning blame to everyone else.

Talking the way you to do to swing voters makes them less wanting to swing your way and instead wanting them to get in bed with MAGA.

Felix is on your side until you piss him off.. so he isn't a problem unless you work hard at making him one.

Imagine calling Felix a swing voter. 😂😂😭

Good Lord. You've lost the plot man.

The only one in denial seems to be you..

He voted for Kam and not Trump this time did he?

But sheesh go call 911 or something.. you're clearly having a nervous breakdown..

If you believe Felix voted for Kamala, then I have every bridge in New York City to sell you. Don't be so naive.

Good fucking Lord.

Seems like we need some Bobs to ask Mr Musk, "what exactly would you say you do at [insert whatever positions he holds]?"
