Trump will have Elon audit the entire federal government

[Mr.Ratbastard]

Too bad he hurts my feelers all the time. What a jerk this guy is.

 

[Thumping]

Damn...a very bold move. Again, Trump is as close to a 3rd party we will ever get. Both parties hate and are scared to death of him.

 

[0ilburner]

 

[Slander]

Good, I see he listened to something at the libertarian convention.

 

[rockota]

Twice!

 

[xr-nut]

he'll never make it to the office. they wont let it happen.

 

[BigBurt]

he'll never make it to the office. they wont let it happen.

We already have that thread

 

[Bonanza]

he'll never make it to the office. they wont let it happen.

Voters?

 

[jpmassey]

This is something to do, but not something to say during a campaign.

 

[Animalmother]

This is something to do, but not something to say during a campaign.

Why is that? They gonna try super duper hard now to keep him out?

 

[Mr.Ratbastard]

Voters?

There are some highly educated unintelligent voters out there so maybe.

 

[the conservative atheist]

he'll never make it to the office. they wont let it happen.

As if there weren't enough reasons for the deep state to plot against him. Hey, let's add another one before the election.

 

[Pook]

I wish we had a PM that loved Canada and our manufacturing sector like Trumps seems to love your country and industries.

 

[jpmassey]

Trump could have capitalized on the assassination attempt by presenting himself as a 'uniter' and say he will help the political discourse and bring people together and all that crap. That's what people want to hear when things are uncertain, not that he's going to have another divisive guy do divisive things.

There's already a campaign targeting Elon going around. My mom sent me this asking me to poke some holes in it. (It wasn't hard to do):

Six ways to rein in Musk

Friends,

Today I want to tell you the dangers posed by an out-of-control Elon Musk (in part I), and six ways to rein him in (in part II). I also provide some personal evidence of how bonkers he is (in my P.S. at the end of today’s letter).

 

[Yota Up]

Elon slashed 90% of the workers at Twitter and now it runs better than ever.
To think about him doing that to every part of our government....

Ah, we can dream.

 

[Penetrode Offroad]

Taxes wont go down if he fires 90% of em though.

 

[Provience]

As if there weren't enough reasons for the deep state to plot against him. Hey, let's add another one before the election.

They are going to kill him twice

 

[rockmup]

I'd be more happy if someone audited both houses to find out how they all got so rich on a gov salary.

Probably true.

But spending will

[Ditchrunner]

If we slowed spending and increased our rate of payback on the national debt until we got that under control, I would be ok with minimal tax decreases. Once the debt is in check, then we can mow down the tax rates. Yes I know reducing taxes also pumps up tax revenue in certain instances, so that has to be factored in also.
Yeah I know, pipe dream.

I was behind a model 3 Tesla the other day and the bumper sticker said something like, "I bought this before Elon went crazy".

I'm in Maryland but the area where I live is primarily farms/conservative folks, so seeing a Tesla isn't as common around here as a lot of you guys are used to.

I thought it was a pretty low-key/funny way to fly their liberal flag in "unfriendly territory".

How about we stop paying every fucking elected official until the debt is gone? We didn’t do this.

Elon is about one of the least divisive people I can think of. Deregulating and auditing the gov hardly seems divisive.

 

[dntsdad]

We talking Elon or Elon's people?

Elon is a smart dude but one guy isn't going to audit the toilet paper costs of the .gov and be done before Trump leaves here for the orange Elysium

You must be back on your meds. This is the smartest thing you've ever said.

No but spending will thus creating the ability to potentially pay more on our debt interest. But instead we will fund more wars with it.

It would of the 90% was from the IRS!
