    He’s been the face of it. What did he cut that he now regrets? Not nearly enough, I’ll tell you that.

    Edit:

    Musk told the group that the recently announced elimination of more than 70,000 jobs at the Department of Veterans Affairs “wasn’t a DOGE decision.”

    Ha ha ha because what’s left of his base would eat him alive. As if they believed the news.

      Common sense… it’s doge or trump… We’ve never seen mass attacks like this, all of a sudden a guy comes around bragging that he’s going to cut the federal jobs like crazy, carries a chainsaw around boasting about cuts, calls every government service ponzi schemes and useless.

      How dumb does anyone have to be to buy it if he says “oh that wasn’t me”. He can’t even make a fall guy. You can’t blame the democrats on this one… they don’t have an ounce of power.

      Yeah, the VA just decided to wipe out 70k people at the same time DOGE is trying to fire everyone in every department? No one is going to believe that stupid fucking excuse. Well, their base might, but they never learned critical thinking due to religious indoctrination and a general lack of public education.

          You have to be able to ignore everything reality is showing you to trust the propaganda those voters swallow willingly without a second thought

            Yes, and it is so scary, they seem like they turned off their brain completely 🥲

            If just educating system of US would not suck… maybe that would have mitigated this issue 🤔

      His hair. Everything else he doesn’t regret cutting, he just doesn’t like that he’s not being idolized for it.
