My point below was DOGE isn’t about fiscal discipline. It’s about dismantling the civil service and ending the idea of apolitical expertise. Because if it were about balancing budget it would go after entitlements and defense spending. And also Trump wouldn’t be pushing massive tax cut.
At some point the politics of DOGE are gonna tilt. Trump and Musk are hollowing out the govt but not touching the real source of spending: Social Security and medicare. Young people are being deprived of a functioning govt to pay for old people’s benefits.

What you realize is MAGA means whatever the hell Trump wants it to mean and his base will follow it even he’s totally duped them. He campaigned on not getting entangled in nation building and now he wants US troops on the ground Gaza. Wow.

Holy shit. I just read that Sebastian Stan won’t be doing the Variety Actors on Actors awards season panel because other actors’ publicists wouldn’t let their clients talk to Sebastian about playing Donald Trump in THE APPRENTICE movie. This is outrageous!

In case you still had any doubt, THE APPRENTICE does an excellent job of showing what a truly awful human being Trump has always been. Sebastian Stan nails his mannerisms. I could see Jeremy Strong getting an Oscar nom for Best Supporting Actor for his portrayal of Roy Cohn. 🎥 #filmsky #fyc
