Well over half the country voted for this! lol! Just sad! I will sit in the comfort of my home to watch while they are crying and looking for help! lol! I even stopped talking to friends and family. They are very hard to talk too. I get exhausted trying to talk logically to them.
I cut them all off. I’d make plans immediately to sell it all & leave, had it not been dad is too ill/wont go. Our plan has always been to expat in retirement. Once dad is gone so are we, if I’m still allowed to.
I know that one Australian state (Qld) is calling out for uni qualified and 3+ years experience in acute nursing for their Northern health district and also teachers. State will sponsor the whole family and relocation costs.
I am in the process of moving to another country. I did not know how difficult it is to get passport. I’m looking at a work visa as well. Anything to get outta here cuz when it is all said and done, Donald and Elon will have ran this country down in the ground!
I have to wait for retirement age, but then I'm off to Argentina. I truly hope they don't move my age groups retirement age. I've been working since I was 12.
I left last year and couldn't be happier. I swore back in 2020 that if he ever ran again I'd leave. Took some time to organize everything, sell, and pack, but I did it! Thank God!
Sadly, millions sat on their duffs at home. 65% voted. 35% did not.
The result is on them.
The fundamental weakness in democratic systems is this. Those who support the rule of law and play by the rules are no match for those who ignore the law.
This feels like 1932 when Hitler became Chancellor.
I find it hard to believe when Trump cheated in 2016, cheated his wives, employees, and golf. He always cheats. So how do we know he didn’t cheat this time, just because we didn’t catch him?
Correction, less that a quarter of the country voted for this. Over half would imply that over half of the country wanted this and that is in fact not true.
It’s not that part I can’t comprehend. Our electorate has shown us how lazy/dumb/hateful they are. It’s the fact that every single gov’t institution that is meant to protect us from this has refused to meet this moment with the aggressive action and urgency that it required. Why? Wtf is going on?
I read that today and I have no words to describe my reaction. It is simply unimaginable the damage that the tanned buffoon and his minions are going to do to your country. Weeping from 🇦🇺
It’s been all over the news wires Russia is calling in their quid pro quo. All 3 branches of govt & military know what a threat he is to the world, let alone our country. Are they really going to roll out the red carpet to him as POTUS? I can’t believe our intelligence branch is unaware
the fact that he called him “the great elon musk”. Do guys think it’s something Elon insisted on? 😂🤦♀️ Or is Trump sucking up to him coz he still needs his money? 🤔
He's willing to inflict that pain for the greater good...or something....Elon said a LOT of people are going to suffer economically but in the end, it will be okay. Because THAT has always worked out before....
Leon butt musk, like chump, is a product of generational wealth & grifting. These morons will steal the money, fire a bunch of people, & make things worse. I want to know how many votes were purged/not counted to install the orange 💩. I'm not buying that he "won" without cheating. Cheating cheeto!
Up here in the North we have watched our neighbors put an end to a great experiment. From "We the people..... to Concentration camps, a tame court & a criminal kleptocrat at the helm supported by a compliant Congress. Only the evil remains.
Stupid people voted for this and I hate every last one of them I hope they get what they voted for they wanted billionaire's that's not gonna give shit about them instead of picking the educated woman who wanted to help the working class i fucking can't
Soooo, Manhattan Project. Welp, they are going to blow the government the f#ck up so, sure why not?
I just can't believe how out they are being about this.
Child, the last computer game I played was Preppie😂😅 like frogger but it was a golfer jumping on logs to cross a river...there were alligators I think....it was awesome
My joke being mostly. If I was to guess, a puppet government that exists mostly to enrich the business owners who actually run the show while pretending it has a say
It was some Japanese kid in SF who proposed it as a joke, the founder of Doge coin, another satirical take on crypto, to normalise crypto as a viable financial alternative to fiat
I think?
Putting a successful businessman in charge of government efficiency has some logic to it (if that’s what you want to do). What scares me more is that Musk is on calls between Trump and Zelenskyy. What could possibly qualify him for such a conversation?? Simply being wealthy? Terrifying.
Elon Musk and the billionaires want to accelerate our society’s destruction in order for them to bring about their idea of a society. Read about accelerationism.
So now Two confirmed business failures are going to tank the USA. The only success Musk has had is buying lucrative companies and reselling… his others are failing so he depends on others gathered talent and gov contracts - are they going to just Turn over USA to China, Russia, Turkey? I need a hit
So, basically, a whole lot of people are about to lose their jobs. Not only in government but in any industry that supplies goods or services to the us government.
Those is going to have massive and far-reaching impact on the us economy.
am i the only one that felt a visceral reaction seeing the capital G in great? as if he’s some… god? like i literally wanted to barf, he’s so full of himself.
FFS. I can’t with this asinine chaos. The proposed cabinet and secretary choices make this upcoming administration an utter embarrassment, here and internationally.
Dismantle most likely. Yes, of course they’ll save money but at the expense of critical services like health, welfare and the environment. We shall see the social security net disappear. Reps think you you stand on your own feet no hand outs.
The Reps are full of it. There are no "hand-outs" unless you count all the tax money we "donate" to the government on every product and service we buy. Until they take taxes off everything and cut Congress' own bloated salary they need to just shut up about "hand-outs".
well I mean, clearly he didn't write that. I mean, it's whole sentences, and I sort of stopped half way through because - but he didn't say "I am the bigliest greatest of all time, I've heard that said by many people, they call me and they say that", so yeah. Clearly he didn't write it.
I honestly don't know our Representatives can tolerate doing that job in this day and age. Dealing with MTG and Gymbo, etc.
Absolute idiots. How frustrating it must be. Constant bullshit.
I saw an interview with Jasmine Crocket and she was so frustrated with Congress she shared her frustrations with VP Harris. From my understanding, VP Harris asked her to hang in there because we need her. We need to support each and every one of these folks, who are on the front line.
The worst part is that a branch of government that oversees wasteful spending, highlights out of date law, & keeps the other branches honest isn’t a bad idea.
i'm a brit and on x that man was telling people in my country all to use solar panels to get our power we don't get much sun and they also wanted to disband nato because they never voted nato was born in 1949 and usa was one of it's founders
I just don't understand how this is possible! Elon musk has a government contract. There are laws into prevent ppl with
government contracts to not be appointed into any government position.
Well...wife and I and our child are probably gonna be on the chopping block. Maybe we'll get lucky and there will be refugee status for trans folk in a better country. Otherwise it was nice knowing y'all while life was good because I have yet to see one benefit to anyone's future here
So when Trump said “Project 2025 - that isn’t my plan - that isn’t my idea - I won’t do that - that is Democrat lies”
What he meant was - “Oh that. Yes. I will get two unelected billionaires to do that. It sounds like the best policies. No enacted by the best people…”
🤦♂️
My first response after reading this was 🤮. Sorry, but true. Kinda the “I slept at the Holiday Inn so I’m qualified to run our nation@ type thing. Sickening.
Comments
I have no fucking words.

Maybe these asshats should get one 👀👀👀

In the meantime, I will continue to live and work without fear! Our country finna turn ugly on its head! Trump hates America!
I suspect a storm is coming.
Not for a while at least. Maybe in 2026 mid terms 🤷🏻♀️
I just can't believe how out they are being about this.
Literally laughing in peoples faces
It’s sinister
The unification of church and state is definitely on the horizon next.
Doge.
Wow.
I think?
Starlink collects surveillance data
Tesla collects driver/passenger/travel and surrounding data
X collects AI datasets data
Hint hint
Those is going to have massive and far-reaching impact on the us economy.
planning to shut down the Fed and make Dogecoin Bitshite whatever our new currency?
It’s power and wealth entrenchment.
1) He's the younger sibling who just got handed a controller that's not even plugged in
2) He's Dolores Umbridge
Which part?
I took this screenshot

And doesn't this already exist in Congress? There's some waste right there.
Absolute idiots. How frustrating it must be. Constant bullshit.
This is what happens when you let a ketamine addict and a coke fiend do government consulting. 🤮
It just shouldn’t be run but any of these clowns!
government contracts to not be appointed into any government position.

🤦♂️
And they named it "DOGE" as an acronym? Please tell me this is a joke.
