Eloon is okay with it as long as it's other people's money, Trump too.

Planning to do to our economy, our government - and our lives.

In that case, it's a scheduled disassembly. Project 2025 is the schedule.

I had to go to the VA and needed to leave while dark. On the way a vehicle got behind me and had some ridiculous head light. One long thin light across the entire hood. White with hues of pink. Stayed on my ass a long while. It finally went around and I saw those panels of sheet medal on the sides. Then I knew it was one of those freaky Musk trucks. Tail lights just as dumb. One long thin red light across the whole tail gate.
Who the hell here in rural WNC could afford one. I guess MAGA’s are already getting great and rich since Muskets became President.

What shocked me is how those trucks are even uglier in person than in photos and videos. Really didn’t think that was possible. Ugly and just stupid looking.
