They're going to cut a trillion dollars that would go to the rare good things in the US budget and then give a trillion and a half to the military and corporate cash. As is tradition.
I think the collapse of the USA will look more like the fall of the USSR than Nazi Germany. Americans are lazy and stupid. I think things will eventually just start to break down (more) due to neglect and incompetence while an increasingly small number of oligarchs consolidate their power and wealth
If Trump did something clearly threatening to the USA, like try to leave NATO, then the deep state would obviously get involved. Way too much money invested to just let that disappear
But appointing the sweatiest swine to positions of leadership? That's actually genius. Comrade Trump has found the perfect loophole to destroy the government.
There's too much capital tied up in the federal government for this to actually happen. The haute bourgeois finger breakers will wrangle Trump in once he's actually in office.
I guess man. Im not convinced anyone with any power knows how to do anything like that anymore, we're like two generations out from the actual capitalists that ran this place.
I feel like once you start fucking with serious amounts of money some competent rich people who's names you've never heard of cuz they're smart enough to stay off Twitter start coming out of the woodwork.
Can't wait to be jailed for being on medicaid and taking antidepressants because RFK Jr. thinks Adam Lanza (who's also an alien) was programmed by prozac to kill.
It is hard to tell if Trump cronies will just sit in their government positions and try to scam money for themselves, or if they will actually go full hog on the (crazy) stuff they are proposing.
Will the “adults in the room” actually do something? Or are they just gonna quietly stockpile resources and hope Elon has a mars colony ready to go in 2028?
They haven't done fuck all in nearly 10 years since Trump won the Republican primary. They won't even stockpile resources. They'll continue to stand in the corner acting smug as Trump sends the FBI to kick down their doors and drags them off to ADX Florence.
I’m just hoping that as co-head of D.O.G.E. (Bleh), Elon does something so ineptly corrupt that the SEC absolutely buries him and Trump is so annoyed by him that he doesn’t step in to intervene.
