they run the risk of losing some base if a lot of folks are out of the job. It’s all fun and games until it’s your job

Me?

I’d like to see forensic financial audits of every single person in the Congress and Senate!

Step it up Trump!

This may sound like fun to many, but it can be accomplished in a more careful manner, not like a blitzkrieg in all departments. Some pushback will soon start appearing in red states. Let’s not waste all political capital on this.

Disagree. This will all blow over in due course, and nobody will even notice the difference.

Elon and Trump are both having the time of their lives with this.

Not sure which one is enjoying themselves the most

Screw them.

I and many lost jobs and business in 2009 due to Obama Care and were told it is the new normal.

**********************

It’s better to lose some voters immediately after an election, than losing them two years from now before an election.

Are you kidding? So effing what? You don't think half the Republican party was in on the kickbacks, favors and influence peddling?

In fact, how in hell was in possible lifer Republican's in Congress and Senate didn't know American tax payers were being looted and robbed in every direction? Did they not notice? How about missing hundreds of billions? Went right over their heads? Are they too stupid to serve?

Nope... there is extremely limited time to get it done. And the whole concept of Blitzkrieg is to induce shock that cripples the enemy.

He has a year, maybe 18 months to do maximum work.

My thoughts resemble your remarks.

When you have a mountain of sh*t to shovel, screw the chain saw, use a skid steer !

I think that is what Trump means.

Who? Federal employees? 95% of them voted for Harris/Biden.

More agencies being DOGE’d. More evidence for criminal indictments.

How much of his base works for the feds? Maybe 100,000 people? So, Trump loses 50,000 people (out of 50M, or more) and most of them are in blue states anyway.

FBI involvement in Jan. 6th. Name names and fire most of the 5,000 agents that worked on railroading their fellow Americans into prison, raided their homes at gunpoint, and turned their lives upside down.

What base? Trump really doesn't have a "base".

At this point he could care LESS about the next election.

Trump made promises and those promises got him votes.

He is keeping his promises, he don't care about no stinkin' election in 2028.

Trump is a builder and first step on a rebuild is DEMOLITION.

He is attempting to demolish in four years what took over fifty to put in place.

Trump ain't looking to massage the "base" for votes in the next election.

Trump understands THIS MOMENT.

The time is NOW to restore this shell of a Republic.

Urgency is required.

No time to worry about the next election.
