Well he said he was "disappointed" and felt Trump's bill underminded him. What does undermind mean?

the act of weakening or destroying something (as a verb). In its verbal form, it means to gradually or secretly weaken something, often by undermining its foundations or support, or by eroding its strength or confidence. For example, "undermind" can describe someone trying to sabotage another person's reputation or efforts, or how a persistent lack of confidence can "undermind" someone's ability to succeed.
A synonym for "slapped in the face" as an expression (meaning insulted or rebuffed) could be insulted, humiliated, or snubbed

Elon Musk says he is "disappointed" by the price tag of the domestic policy bill passed by Republicans in the House last week and heavily backed by President Trump. The billionaire who recently stepped back from running the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE, made the remark during an exclusive broadcast interview with "CBS Sunday Morning."

"I was disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, not just decreases it, and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing," Musk said.

Musk's comments appear to put him at odds with Mr. Trump, who has championed the massive spending package. The legislation — which still needs to pass the Senate — would extend Mr. Trump's signature 2017 tax cuts, boost border security spending, impose work requirements on Medicaid and roll back clean energy tax credits.

The tax provisions of the package, titled the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" after Mr. Trump's name for the bill, would increase the deficit by $3.8 trillion by 2034, according to the Congressional Budget Office.

Shocking isn't it?

To see a president who does not insist that everyone around him follow the ever-shifting dogma of his party?

Imagine what would have happened if a senior Biden staffer had said publicly, "maybe it isn't all that fair for female athletes to be permanently injured due to being forced to play against biological men."

Democracy means that every person is free to criticize the President, legally. When the president is comfortable with his senior staff criticizing his actions, you know Democracy picked the right President.

Your concern over Musk's FeeFees is touching

I love it that anyone who works with Trump gets ruined. Trump comes out unscathed.

Either they go bankrupt (My Pillow Guy) or sued (Rudy) or they go to jail

Wikipedia as a source how hilarious.

correct. It points to sources, and summarizes what the sources say.
Its also peer reviewed.

correct. It points to sources, and summarizes what the sources say.
Its also peer reviewed.

But it doesn't always validate Trump. Clearly a leftist propaganda outlet.

 

[Seymour Flops]

I'm not sure what're you're getting at here. My biggest beef with partisans is that they insist on treating politics like warfare. They inject the violent imagery. Because they want violent government.

You do not remember this post?

Hmmm... if the other side "wins" by burning women and children alive, would you do it to? To fight as dirty as them?

Prosecute the lawbreakers. But let's be honest, that's not good enough, right? MAGA wants a progrom.

Now, you are projected a "what if."

What if the Republicans finish punishing the lawbreakers, like Fani Willis and Jack Smith and then turn to prosecuting honest Democrats who disagree with them?

Ask me when it happens, because so far the Democrats are the ones doing that.

No. It's not cool at all. I'll say it again, since you're so eager to dismiss it:

"If the cost is validating their lawfare by mimicking it, if the cost is eroding fundamental Constitutional protections like due process and habeas corpus, if the cost is descending deeper and deeper into fascist fearmongering and scapegoating - we'll all pay the cost."

Maybe I missed it: Who has the Trump administration prosecuted who did not break the law?

Yeah. That's the problem alright. And it's worse than that because Democrats mostly agree. They've been spinning the "victimhood" line for far longer than Republicans. We now have a nation of voters convinced that only authoritarian government can save them.

Wrong.

We have the majority of voters very happy that the current government is not fascist.

wrong it is no good as a source for most claims as anyone can post anything to the page.

I see you still have not listed a single instance of Trump doing what you are whining about but we have listed democrats doing it the last 10 years.

 

[Rawley]

No. You vote against it. And if they pass it, you work to repeal it. Isn't that obvious?

SO it is us versus them. You seem confused about this. Like using what you deem derogatory names for people with ideas that are different from yours

 

[Rawley]

I love it that anyone who works with Trump gets ruined.

That a pretty fucked up view of life

 

[Correll]

Provided the degenerate democrats don't rig the elections.

Way things are going, the win is going to be too big to hide.

I mean, have you been hearing the shit they are trying, to "fix" this?


They are completely failing to even...identify the problem(s).

 

[dblack]

You do not remember this post?

Yeah - i just don't know why your fixating on this. Are you trying to make some kind of point? Something relevant to the conversation?

Maybe I missed it: Who has the Trump administration prosecuted who did not break the law?

Have there been any prosecutions? All I've seen are unchecked executive orders - targeted attacks intent on purging the government of anyone on the other side of the "culture war"

We have the majority of voters very happy that the current government is not fascist.

As is often the case, the majority is wrong.

Fuck you. Don't pretend you know what I think. Don't pretend you're intelligent to understand my posts. Crawl back under your rock and resume fondling Trump's scrotum. He digs that.

You tell us daily in here! You posted retaliation is bad without an alternative position against an offensive attack.

 

[Rawley]

No. I want you to realize that childish, destructive retaliation does no good. It might give you your vengeance high, but it leaves the nation in a worse place.

I'm not so worried about the tit-for-tat prosecutions. As long as there's evidence of a real crime, go for it. But SOOO much of the MAGA mindset is insane paranoid fantasy. And that leads them to support anything that dings leftists, regardless of its legality, regardless of the precedent it sets.

Those precedents will come back to haunt you - all of us.

So, if/when it is revealed that someone in the WH used the autopen to forge the President's signature? Just look the other way? WTF?

 

[dblack]

I see you still have not listed a single instance of Trump doing what you are whining about but we have listed democrats doing it the last 10 years.

No. What you're seeing is that I'm not interested in your denial dance. I'm sure you have a long list of excuses handy. Read them to yourself.

 

[jc456]

Both parties seem to think they are. That's what the thread is about. Is this the new normal? Are we just going to accept it?

Who runs dc? Can you admit it?

 

[RetiredGySgt]

Name one thing that Trump has done that is illegal or vendetta

The op has failed repeatedly to show a single instance of Trump going for a vendetta or breaking the law as President. He has been asked by me now what 4 times to give an example and he hasnt.

 

[dblack]

So, if/when it is revealed that someone in the WH used the autopen to forge the President's signature? Just look the other way? WTF?

Not at all. If they broke the law, prosecute them.

 

[jc456]

No. What you're seeing is that I'm not interested in your denial dance. I'm sure you have a long list of excuses handy. Read them to yourself.

So you accused without evidence? See, demofk

Hmm I dunno. Deep state lizards?
