If you had been on the government payroll – no, the taxpayer payroll – and had recently been laid off it must have been tough, but like everyone else, you know that the government has become totally bloated.
The nation’s financial future cannot survive long with a $36 trillion debt dragging us down. Well, before 2025, previous presidents had attempted to cut waste, fraud and unnecessary spending. Unfortunately, Obama gave the job to someone whose family had “proudly” been on the taxpayers’ payroll, Joe Biden, for longer than many Americans have been alive.
One of the reasons that politicians are returned to Washington time and time again is because they had earlier graduated with their Washington politicians’ diplomas and had demonstrated this fact by bringing back the bacon – no, the whole hog – to their constituents, adding drastically to the country’s debt.
This time Donald Trump, the businessman president, has smartly given the task to an outsider, Elon Musk, and his dedicated team of Department of Government Efficiency partners. While the Musk team incorporates business technologies and commonsense solutions to work toward a more efficiently run enterprise, foreign entities the likes of Iran, the Chinese and unfortunately our own Deep State, along with Democrat politicians, who don’t want the New Golden Age to succeed, use the multimedia to rile up angry Democrats to protest. The protests sometimes have turned violent against the selfless work the Elon Team is doing for America. What is sadly incredible is that only one elected Democrat so far has condemned the terrorism.
In the meantime, President Trump is using the threat of tariffs to both friends and foes to bring businesses home. This will result in there being rewarding, quality jobs available, producing something of value instead, for those who previously worked for the bulging boondoggle of a bureaucracy.
