Trump Says Musk Will Lead New ‘Government Efficiency Commission’— (Poll)

[Nostra]

Waste, fraud, and abuse, you say?

Eliminate all tax expenditures.

There. Done.

No government Okeedokee.

 

[SeaMajor7]

He destroyed the platform
Lost billions in the process

"GO **** yourself."
--- Elon Musk

 

[Nostra]

Conservatives were not censored. Right wing extremists were.

Still illegal, Dumbass.

 

[Obiwan]

Then why is everything he says and does so hilariously stupid?

He's a sad fascist dumbshit with a brainwashed cult following, much like Trump.

Go on, tell us what GENIUS things Elon Musk has done. I mean, aside from buying Twitter so that he could censor everyone who makes fun of him.

Like Zuckerberg censored or banned anyone that disagreed with the Democrats? Your bunch actually CHEERED that!!!

 

[rightwinger]

Yes, let’s have this guy redesign our Government

 

[g5000]

The guy who overpaid for a social media company and then ran it into the ground should be put in charge of an efficiency commission?

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

Priceless.

 

[HikerGuy83]

Good to see the blob nakedly admitting that if you give him enough money, you can rewrite the constitution.

Why didn’t he do it the first time?

Because congress is a group of huge spenders.

Trump is no angel when it comes to deficits.

He just isn't as bad as Biden or Obama.

Game, Set, Match.

One man's free speech is another man's "disinformation".
Like when Kellyanne coined the phrase "alternate facts" when Rs and Ds disagree on the facts.

Even for fact-checking the Trump-Harris debate there should be two separate fact checkers, one appointed by each, since fact-checking can be <<<<spun>>>> politically.

No, there is disinformation, misinformation, and fact.

Ran it into the ground?

[candycorn]

And then they fixed it.

And now the system works.

Um...retard?

Trump ran up $8 trillion of debt in half the time it took Obama.

And his debt was bigger than Biden's.

You cult members are literally blind and stupid.

The guy who received billions in government subsidies to make the least cost effective electric cars only rich people could afford should be put in charge of an efficiency commission?

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!

Oh, man. That's priceless.

The Democrats are the ones trying to FORCE the change to EVs. Musk has left the move as an option, instead of demanding that anyone buy his product. The fact that he's selling them to the crazy liberal climate change nutcases is true BUSINESS GENIUS!!!

 

[g5000]

Trump proposes record-high $4.7 trillion budget​

US budget deficit topped $1 trillion in 2019 for the first time in seven years

Trump says he wants a bigger stimulus package than the $2.2 trillion amount that Democrats are seeking​

I notice you conveniently left out the fact Musk received billions in government subsidies.

And Musk has the ******* balls to criticize subsidies!

And then they launched again on August 31st (twice)

And once more on September 5th. All with FAA approval.

Did you know that and thus are a hack, or did not know that and are thus an ignorant ****?

Let’s talk inefficiencies

To Musk, Govt sending a family $650 so they can eat is inefficient

Govt sending his company billions so he can produce overpriced vehicles is to be encouraged

Its nice that his shotty work was caught before any astronauts died.

One of my recommendations has always been to have another "Grace Commission" to study the Federal government and eliminate waste. fraud and abuse. It could also make major cost cutting recommendations like sending Welfare and Medicaid back to the States. Some changes would require legislation, others could be by Executive Orders.
The Grace Commission failed, it would have save the US from DEBT, but Congress never supported their money saving recommendations.

Trump Embracing Musk’s ‘Government Efficiency Commission’

Trump is expected to detail his plans for the commission, if elected to another term, in a speech Thursday.

www.forbes.com

Key Facts​

• The commission will be “tasked with conducting a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government” and make “recommendations for drastic reforms,” Trump said in his speech Thursday at the Economic Club of New York.
• Musk has agreed to lead the commission, Trump said—and while Musk has not commented since Trump’s speech Thursday, he has repeatedly said in the past he would be open to serving on the commission.
• The group’s first order of business, Trump said, will be formulating a plan to “totally eliminate fraud and improper payments within six months.”
• Musk has repeatedly raised the idea for such a commission, describing it as one that would ensure “taxpayers’ money . . . is spent in a good way,” and telling Trump he would be “happy to help out” during a live chat on X last month.
• Trump and his advisers have been discussing for months the formulation of a group led by business executives that would comb government spending for excess, the Washington Post reported earlier this week.
• In response to the Washington Post report, Musk wrote “can’t wait” and that there is “a lot of waste and needless regulation in government that needs to go” on X.

Musk may be conflicted and unable to divest. Even without Musk this commission needs to happen.

Sounds just great.

Forgive my skepticism of it being accomplished

The platform is alive and well. True he lost a few $billion, so what? Elon is protecting free speech.

At least here in the US he is.

In Brazil he agreed to have Starlink block X.

Money wins out over free speech
