and elon says he wants the brightest minds for his doge. they announced mtg will be joining him.

it's a clown car.

if it's anything like the first term, it'll be less like a clown car and more like a clown recruiting office with a healthy revolving door.

trump picked russell vought to run the omb.

russell vought is the co-author of project 2025 (that trump knows nothing about and wants nothing to do with).

wtf is right mal.

i was criticized for not taking his denial at face value. i respect c_k greatly. he wrote. "Trump has categorically denied supporting or having anything to do with Project 2025 at the debate with Kamala Harris. I think we can safely put his support for that down as not being true."

if somebody smart, engaged and intellectually curious as c_k just accepts trump's bullshit, it's not at all surprising he won so convincingly.

i agree the economy is a big factor - the biggest factor. but it's not the only factor.

during the debate trump claimed he'd end the war in ukraine before his inauguration:

"If I'm President-Elect, I'll get it done before even becoming president."

he's got 37 days.

In light of the CEO shooting, do you think anyone will be saying they want Trump to run the country like a business?
