My thoughts on Elon Musk

[AntonToo]

2. He and Vivek agreed to run DOGE to save the US from bankruptcy by making the government more efficient and to eliminate "waste, fraud, and theft".

Sure they agreed.

But it's mostly just empty aspirations.

You have to be an ignoramus to think that our long term insolvency has been solved by DOGE own claimed 175 billion savings (which have been estimated to cost us ~130 billion)...while Republicans are trying to pass "Big Beautiful Bill" that would add trillions to our deficits.

Idiot, what "conspiracy theories"? Musk's companies recieve billions on gov contracts, grants and subsidies.

I keep asking the same question and nobody can give me an answer.
It was posted that Musk was somehow redirecting tax payer money for his own personal projects.
Contracts are money provided to perform some kind of work or provide a service, which he did.
Do you even understand the difference between a contract and somebody's personal projects?
It seems as though you don't.

 

[Modern Messiah]

Oh.
Ok.

3. His DOGE team are amazing, they are modernizing the Federal government, especially the FAA air traffic control system

Whats amazing is your total ignorance of what DOGE is.

It has right about nothing to do with development or implementation of FAA trafic control systems.

In an advisory capacity it does

Idiot it's a fact that Government has contracts with Musk's companies. And it's a fact that he got yet more contracts for his companies while he was in the White House. Just like the fact that among all the contract concelations there is not a single one for Musk's companies.

What part are you denying?

How many rocket ship parts companies are out there?

Can any of you Trumptards coherently answer simple questions?

You're babbling incoherently again.
Maybe you should breath into a paper bag and sit the next few rounds out.

It's "incoherent" for you to hear that Government Efficiency Department does not build and implement air traffic control systems?

Maybe it's time to go get your head checked, something is definetly not working like it should.

1. Not true! DOGE canceled 10,871 contracts saving $32b. Real money.

2. True. DOGE cannot save the US from insoilvency, that is up to congress to cut spending, raise revenue, and eliminate "waste, fraud, and theft" from the Federal government. BUT, DOGE is doing great work!

3. The GOP BBB is scored by the CBO to add $3.8T to the Debt over 10-years unless the Senate cuts more spending or raises more revenue. Tariffs + DOGE savings alone may solve the $380b a year shortfall.

A conspiracy theory was posted on this thread that somehow Musk was diverting public, tax payer funds for his own personal projects.
He received contracts and he successfully completed said contracted work.
Where is your proof that he took tax payer money and spent it on his own personal projects?
Oh.
You don't have any

Not denying anything....reality is most of his government monies were given before Trump entered the picture......and the rocket issue is self explanatory.

Cool story, now lets see if you can actually respond to my full post.

I did.

This was a huge wasted opportunity. Getting things done isn't just about WANTING to get things done, it's also about HOW you go about DOING it. And you don't do something this important and complicated like the way it was done. This was/is a goddamn circus. Par for the course for this administration.

Musk's ego, impatience and hubris didn't help. The American government is not a goddamn startup.

I'm curious, do you not believe there is corruption that was explained by DOGE? Let's see where you stand first.

 

[Modern Messiah]

It's "incoherent" for you to hear that Government Efficiency Department does not build and implement air traffic control systems?

Maybe it's time to go get your head checked, something is definetly not working like it should.

So still no proof.
Not only are you babbling incoherently, you can't even stay on topic.

Idiot it's a fact that Government has contracts with Musk's companies.

this isn't allowed? What is your point?

And it's a fact that he got yet more contracts for his companies while he was in the White House.

put a link of one.

Just like the fact that among all the contract concelations there is not a single one for Musk's companies.

What part are you denying?

you!

 

[whitehall]

They always leave out the part that Musk is a rocket scientist who personally rescued two astronauts from the space station while NASA was busy with it's phony global warming agenda set by the Biden administration.

Once it's proven in a court of law and not just claimed, sure. Nail them.

I'm all for it. Get to it.

yep, you are a total moron and you prove it with your every post.
