"“Don’t take Tylenol! ... Don’t take it! You’ll be uncomfortable. It won’t be easy, maybe. But don’t take it!”

New, from me: Trump and Musk are engaged in a broad-based downsizing of government, using that downsizing to selectively target their enemies, while expanding their political power by trading exceptions to the downsizing.
