It's all a grift.
No doubt. If Trump was starting a lemonade stand, I wouldn’t invest $10 to buy the lemons.

Posted this in the Ukraine thread, but the news about Trump negotiating an economic deal with Putin is also relevant here
What if the lemonade comes with a bible-constitution combo book?

Billy Bob will finally realize it when his country is actually reduced to ashes and rubble all around him. And even then he'll probably blame someone or some group other than Dear Leader for the disaster he's seeing.
Well then, that would be different. Haha. Trump is a fucking thief, and there’s no doubt about it.

Pentagon brings right-wing podcaster on board to run digital media
Graham Allen’s hiring comes as DOD looks to lay off tens of thousands of employees and freeze hiring to cut costs.

“Conservative podcaster Graham Allen started a new job at the Pentagon on Monday, as the Defense Department’s digital media director, a Defense official who was not authorized to speak on the record told Defense One.
According to an email sent to the Pentagon’s public affairs staff, Allen “will further strengthen our ability to communicate effectively.” The official did not provide any details about Allen’s job description.
… Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth first mentioned Allen’s name in a Thursday video statement, as one of the people who will be helping DOD “communicate directly, rather than through the filter of media outlets.”
The other is Sean Parnell, a combat veteran and previous Republican congressional candidate in Pennsylvania, who just came on board as Hegseth’s assistant for public affairs.
… Since President Donald Trump took office in January, the Pentagon has not held a public press briefing. Hegseth has instead preferred to communicate through video statements and social media…..”

I do think shit like this is going to continue to anger and alienate even some conservatives from Trump, and especially Musk. Many military bases are the economic engines of their communities (see Fort Bragg and Fayetteville) and making significant cuts to the Defense Department is going to piss off a lot of people around the country. It's going to take time, but I do think cuts like these are going to eventually boomerang on Republicans in districts that have large military bases or numbers of DoD personnel.Pentagon brings right-wing podcaster on board to run digital media

Looks like we might be headed for some kind of showdown between DOGE and government agencies regarding Elon's exact authority over federal workers and government agencies. And it looks like many federal workers are quickly reaching their boiling/breaking point and may not back off on this or go quietly if DOGE tries to fire them. It was probably inevitable, and could get very ugly. I guess we'll see if the president just saying he's named a guy to rampage through the government and literally do whatever he wants, including firing perhaps hundreds of thousands of people, is going to stand. And even if it does, I'm not sure that a lot of these workers will go quietly this time. Elon may want to double his security detail.

I'm shocked by all of this. You know me NYC, and I am flabbergasted that trump and fElon are engaging in such abhorrent shenanigans. They slander my good name. I have laid out on this site exactly what needs to happen. Don't hide my wisdom from the people, despite my inflammatory nature. I am here and many other places to save humanity. Godspeed, we're all gonna need it, I know this. It's well past time to destroy rednecks. You can detonate their tractors, put subliminal messages in their depressing country songs, or put a little fetanyl in their skoal. Just do something, for the love of brown Jesus, make them fucking suffer!!
Is it fake leather AND made in China?
Does it come with a Lee Greenwood CD?
If any answer is a “No,” I don’t want it……..
