@vriska I was just thinking about the sign that said "musk is the only immigrant I'm worried about" well I guess except for the criminal aliens trump deported that already had deportation orders
@sun someone who's close to trump needs to start telling him that everyone thinks Elon is embarrassing him and is basically the president, i know trump wouldn't have won without elons money but he's petty enough that if a trusted advisor told him that elon was emasculinating him daily on the world's stage he'd fire him and cut funding to SpaceXplosion out of jealousy
@vriska I think the vast majority of the cuts are great. I don't trust either one of them but coincidentally these are great and I hope they keep wrecking everything
@vriska I reserve the right to make fun of people that are announcing online that they are planning revolution because defunding the park service is unconstitutional or something
@sun "defunding the parks service (to give all of that money to spaceX and israel
if even one single person who talks about revolution because of parks service defunding kills a politician they will be the most morally correct and honorable american political figure since Forever
@vriska@anemone 85% good 15% bad. By the end of his term it will be 50/50 or worse but he'll have excised the permanent government which is quite literally a once in a century accomplishment
@vriska@anemone tired of being held hostage for the .00002% of good uses of government money so that all the rest can be spent on other countries. I hate military spending as much as you but even he is not going to change that but he can change some of the other stuff
@sun@anemone spending won't be cut at all. it'll just go entirely towards killing brown people in the middle east and rocketships to nowhere. you'll pay the same taxes but also wonder why all your chronically ill friends and elderly relatives are suddenly dying.
@sun@anemone what you're saying is "He can stop spending money on the few objectively good things the government can spend money on to spend more on bad, useless, faulty and stupid things
@sun@anemone Do you have any idea how many more cruise missiles we can sell israel if we stop funding cancer research and letting 8 year old public school students eat lunch for free?
@vriska@georgia@anemone if it were up to me we would close all our bases and spend 20% of what we currently spend on military, and give zero dollars to israel. but there is literally no person on the horizon who will do that
@georgia@anemone@sun we're spending it when we continue to give them tens of billions of dollars in taxpayer aide but can't fund a 90 year old woman or a child getting food
@sun@anemone@georgia I agree, so there's also no reason to celebrate the party that has decided "what if we actually spent all of our money on Israel and Elon's Rocketships?
there will not be a single cent actually cut from the budget nor the debt by the end of this term. Not a single cent.
