What a monumental mess! šŸ™ˆ

The vote in the senate will be interesting. I have a feeling Trump will scream a lot the next few weeks.

He can scream all he likes. Get some noise cancelling headphones and ride it out.

This sounds like performative BS from Musk trying to slightly redeem himself in the public eye. I expect there is about as much reality involved as there is when Trump and Putin pretend to have a lovers' spat.

Trump’s budget-buster must NOT have enough grift for Musk! Since when does Musk really care about deficits!

His Space X is a budget-buster all on its own!

DOGE was all about destroying Congressional oversight of elite, corrupt corporate wealth,

AND

transferring public wealth (Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare) to private companies for profiteering!)

DOGE HAD NOTHING YO FO WITH CAREFULLY TRIMMING GOVERNMENT SPENDING!

DOGE! What a tragedy šŸŽ­!

We have no idea what doge has really done other than steal information and ruin people's lives. We have never seen an "accurate accounting". elon muskrat just wants to be sure that all his paychecks clear the bank from the Government coffers, his income now and in the future. This is a self preservation worry for himself.

He is correct it is a horrible bill and should never pass for a lot of reasons fiscally but the inhumanity of it is the worst part of it. To steal from the middle class and below to give to the very rich is the worst along with djt trying to make himself King while strangling Our Judiciary.

elon will always be hated because of his actions that he had no business being involved with, this attempt to put himself in a better light will not work. The only thing he is right about is this bill is horrible and should be DOA and completely crushed none of it has any redeeming qualities.

Sooooo, Musk and Trump have finally had a public disagreement! Who won the pool that it would only take 5 months? Honestly, I would have bet on much sooner, but I’m not a betting woman. šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø

Hahahaha. Well, Toddler Trump took away toddler Elon's toy, and now he's really really angry and throwing a tantrum. I was waiting for this. I truly hope that Elon's defection will help slow down Trump's assault on democracy, even if Elon doesn't care.

I'm not one for conspiracy theories, but I think Musk has Trump over a barrel. Musk controls spending, and he has access to everyone's digital data. I would not be surprised to learn that not only did Trump do the auto-golpe, but Musk is going to be the power. At this point, even if MAGA Representatives and Senators were, by some miracle, to wake up, Musk can ruin them faster than Trump can primary them. This could be a bloodbath.

The real irony of this is that Musk has never lived up to his own advertising. The only thing he’s doing here is trying to retrieve DOGE’s reputation.

With all due respect, who cares what Musk claims to think? He blindly took a wrecking ball to social services, federal staff, and social support systems that serve citizenry and world citizens who don't happen to be billionaires. So his so-called rationale for disliking the BBB is rooted in bigotry and detestation of ordinary hard-working folks. "Disliking" something for all the wrong reasons simply doesn't count for squat!

How long will it be before Trump cuts his funding - or some masked men in black kidnap and disappear him, then send him on a deportation flight?

Elon Musk is "just-about" ready to go to the confessional Booth with our new Pope Leo about his term/sins with the President ... this is a first step and if Trump responds negatively towards Elon Musk remarks ... look out "GAME-ON" Donald J Trump!
