I believe that Musk had different expectations in the budget process and sort of unwound when it didn't go they way he wanted.

But Musk is relatively new to politics and is learning some hard facts. No one can run a government the way they can run a private company. And as much as I would like to see the budget slashed and the work of DOGE to become law, it's not possible with this Congress.

In my view both Musk and Trump love America and both have made great sacrifices to make America better. But they disagree on how it can be accomplished. But Trump is the one who won the job, and has earned the right to do it his way.

“No one can run a government the way they can run a private company.”

A not insignificant reason that Donald Trump is our president is the expectation that government CAN be run along the lines of a business.

He didn’t realize how sausage is made.

He doesn’t understand the rules.

I agree that sometimes the rules in Congress are silly these days. But it is what it is.
