I have very little faith in Donald Trump

he continually says A and not A

people choose to hear what they want or what they hate as the mood strikes them because he always says both

I have a lot of faith in Elon when it comes to commercial entities .

can he fix the government? wow that's hard.

I'm skeptical he's going to make a lot of progress

maybe they can reduce regulations substantially

the last time that happened was Reagan and it only lasted for his first term

the machine just loves to get bigger and we the people beg it to do so

like the f-35, which is an idiotic idea in the age of drones. but it is being built piece by piece in almost every congressional district in the country so it provides jobs in every district so every congressman votes for it. how does one fight that?

they will make no progress to speak of on the budget because it's 1/3 interest on their defense and 1/3 free crap for old people. old people vote.

the military insures that we own the seas. We are in unintentional empire but it's too late to turn back the clock on that and if you do the world gets a very dangerous very fast

Thoughtful and sober. I agree with all of what you wrote. As for Trump, meh, he says words until he gets applause, then he doubles down.

If Elon and Vivik are too good at their new job they will get fired. Or worse. I think Trump wants to be loved to much (in the high time preference sense) to let them do what needs to be done. Achieving true “efficiently” will not be popular. I hope I am wrong…

they sounds about right

At this point 🍿
