It's going to be 4 years of basically watching all of these imbeciles gnaw at eachother while everyone else's quality of life just dies around them. Lovely.
Meanwhile, in the Democratic Party headquarters...
"At least the economy is doing well."
remember: First Lady Elon Musk
Secret Service codename: X-wife
Elonia Trump.
Musk has joined key diplomatic calls and even attempted to broker peace with Iran.
That's a pretty clear violation of the Logan Act. Gettin' blue from holding my breath over here.
I'm sure the judiciary is gonna take care of it.
I'm sure Gutless Garland will get right on it.
All of the people swirling around in the sewage that is donvict's thugs are probably pissing off each other, because all of them are Karens, FFS.
Even annoying AF people get annoyed by other annoying assholes...
Republicans: "Billionaires are just better than everyone else and we should all get out of their way and hand them the keys to everything for the betterment of all mankind."
Republicans After Being Forced to Spend One (1) Week Around Elon Musk: "No, shit, wait, these guys are fucking idiots!"
Oh man I can't wait for this knot of over-torqued springs to explode apart into pieces. Too bad the shrapnel will probably kill us all.
Yeah, one part of the prediction and fears raised about the republicans is it gives them far too much credit to actually run a government.
They have held the house and the Senate before and then been crippled by infighting as with slim majoroties it only takes a few people to hold everyone hostage.
Some of Trumps nominations may not get through the Republican controlled Congress.
People seem to forget the republicans controlled all 3 parts of government in 2016 and didn't get far. Yes they managed some significant things but tax cuts and supreme Court nominations are the main successes.
This time Trump is making batshit crazy nominations which are likely to divide their own party in Congress.
Gaetz nomination is particularly bad as he's hated by a lot of Republican law makers. There are likely enough republicans who actually care about the legal system that his nomination will not get through. If it does get through then it'll be a sign of how bad things can be. But it's likely it will not get through and just sow seeds of discord between Trump and some of the republicans in Congress, poisoning more attempts to change things.
I predict one hell of a shit show over the next 2 years, but probably not from what they do - instead from what they fail to do and the recriminations that follow. All those Republican law makers telling themselves that Trump is diminished, less of a threat, and that they can control him are in for a hell of a ride.
I forgot there were going to be potentially 3 CEOs in the Whitehouse. They're going to get under each other's skin like you wouldn't believe. We're still fucked but the infighting should be quite enjoyable.
As a European, I'm here with a bucket of popcorn in one hand, enjoying the shit show. I'm of course scared for what will happen, and the consequences will impact the entire planet, but since I have absolutely nothing I can do about it, the enjoyment will suffice.
All of Donnie’s boys sitting in the “work in the White House together” challenge like
Even funnier context is that this episode he was annoyed at Tesla. 🤣
It’ll be the first time in his life he is not the boss. That’ll likely lead to a problem.
has joined key diplomatic calls and even attempted to broker peace with Iran.
I have to stop reading the news here. I can feel the aneurysm growing in my head.
Non American here but is that not against the law? He is no official representative...
Likely, but who is going to do anything about it? My country is an embarrassment and proven that there are no laws for those under a certain status/value.
Yes, specifically the Logan Act.
Are we going to see Trump Admin Churn before he even takes office!?
How many Scarumuccis will some of these douchebags last?
Didn't see this coming from about 136 miles away. Oh no...
I'm looking forward to 4 years of great and annoying articles like this
He doesn't want to be co-president. He's a founder of the USA.
Trapezoid Musk wants to steal the attention away from Trump. He will never allow that. I pray they will clash at each other
Wouldn't it be awesome if they had a big punch-up?
Trump has promised a cabinet position to every insufferable asshole in the country who insists that everyone accept their own fringe views and talks over anyone who disagrees, while also knowing nothing about what they're talking about. This is gonna be funny to watch, but painful to experience.
Please fire him. Preferably into the sun, but I'll accept simply out of any position in government.
The only good part of the Trump regime will be watching them infight as we all go up in flames.
I'm gonna call bullshit on this. For years now, I've been reading articles just like this one, and at the end of the day, nobody that could change anything did a fucking thing. It's just posturing and means nothing.
Everybody hated everybody and I didn't like what Trump was doing, but I fucking did it anyway. Buy my book.
A less endearing Dwight Schrute
When you are fucking the bosses wife, you get to do anything you want.
When you are fucking the boss~~es wife~~, you get to do anything you want.
Trump should just shit his pants every time Elon shows up.
What makes you think he doesn't?
Good.
What, the autistic tech bro doesn't fit in with the conservative old pedophile club?
Just wait until one of their phones break or they need a printer set up, they'll be begging him then.
Does he even know how to do that stuff? I got the impression he's just a loudmouth dumbass who doesn't know anything about anything. I know his fanbois think he's some kind of UberEngineer, but....I have seen no evidence of that.
I had predicted this a while back, in that enabling Trump meant victory for the GOP, but the total erosion of Conservative values. This is clear in that any career politician will likely cede power to a bunch of nutjobs or meme lords with money.
They can either shut up and let Trump do his thing (lol), or they can dig their heels in and fight his decisions from within, grinding government to a halt (also lol). Either way, it's a win for most, because in the long term the right will bail after Trump and leave a party so weak that it probably won't be able to fight off the memory of Trump. He'll never endorse a candidate that's not himself, especially if the GOP blocks him. His rabid fan base will either die out, or go third-party because the GOP is "too woke" or something.
Trumps administration will likely start out with a lot of power hungry egomaniac freaks, and then with its very high turnover, trump loyalists will be filtered through, like they did in their first term.
Competence doesn't really matter.
Obviously, Musk wants to be the shadow president of the USA but I don't think it'll play out as he hopes.
He's pissing off everyone in the world.
The more he acts up, the quicker trump will dump his ass. Fat Donnie is the dictator and wants all the attention, other people taking that away get dumped, bigly!
Cool. Maybe they’ll all drop dead or smth
Sucks to be them.
