US presidential candidate Donald Trump said he would appoint Elon Musk to head a government efficiency commission if he is elected to office in November.
“At the suggestion of Elon Musk, who has given me his complete and total endorsement… I will create a government efficiency commission tasked with conducting a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government and making recommendations for drastic reforms,” Trump told the Economic Club of New York.
“Too efficient. Let’s put a moron in charge to shake that up.”
Fuck man, we already tried that in 2016.
So, he basically bought himself a job in our government. I kinda want to say that’s illegal, but this is the circus we live in now. Complaining about the clowns is probably a waste of time at this point
So if Trump is elected the USA will be run like Twitter
*Xitter (pronounced shitter)
That’s fine, I already have a million reasons to vote against him, what’s a million and one?
Didn’t Trump fill that roll by just not filling a huge portion of the government?
Imagine if the people in charge of our country took it seriously instead of whatever this clown show is.
Can’t wait to vote Kamala, and least she won’t make things worse.
That tracks as they’re both petulant children who know nothing about running a business…except how to torpedo them with their own hubris and ineptitudes after losing gobs of money. Hopefully, after this exhausting and long-winded election cycle is over we can never hear their stupid names or voices again!
If you don’t like it, vote.
Vote for Harris *
Any vote not to Harris be it third party or otherwise is a vote for Trump. A third party cannot win in our current First Past the Poll system
It seriously baffles me that there are still people that don’t understood very simple and easy to understand fact. Especially when it’s been explained to them ad nauseam.
I’m beginning to think it’s willful ignorance on their part.
They’re either Trump supporters, have foreign interests, or are so fucking brainwashed they’d rather throw the whole country away than admit they don’t understand American civics
Unfortunately as long as we have FPTP and the electoral college we aren’t a democracy
I hate that it’s the reality. Fptp is so anti democratic.
Then organize a ballot measure for RCV or your preferred alternate system. Too late for this November but you can do something for future elections at least at the state level.
Our government isn’t a meme you incel fuck. That clown is exhausting.
Translation: “I got an endorsement and a lot of money from Elon Musk, so I’m giving him a government job as a kickback where he can “regulate” his own businesses to enrich himself even further at the expense of literally every other American.”
Oh man, I can’t see a conflict of interest at all. Nope, no siree.
He is maintaining his record of putting the worst possible person he can find in positions of power.
Betsy Devos but worse
Dear Donald J. Numbskull: the fact that Elon never sleeps and kisses your ass does not mean he’s efficient, or even understands the concept.
Trump has never cared about hiring people who are efficient. He hires them if they pay him. His administration was filled with industry representatives, who were in positions where they decided regulation of their own businesses. Corruption all the way down.
Christ, what an absolutely terrible idea. Of course the magachuds would be stroking off to such an idea…
I think hiring the CEO of MULTIPLE Businesses who bought a WEBSITE for $44000000000 and has MULTIPLE Government Contracts to a Government Role is a BIGLY SMART Move with LITERALLY no Downside or room for Swampy Activity!
He’s good at promising without delivering, which is great if your idea of government efficiency is “have the best press while embezzling tons of money”.
The Russian state should be a warning not a guide to model after.
His way of making the government efficient will be to just have no bid contracts go to all of his businesses.
Which is the safest thing to do since he has name recognition…

God could you imagine.
Vote.
