Totally OPPOSED to those $5000 rebate checks from the Trump presidency

This isn't going to win me any friends with my fellow mainstream conservatives here, but this is the problem with Republicans: We are the ONLY independent thinkers out there.

Elon Musk finds TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS in fraud and waste in government (which he probably will have for us in six months.) The WORST thing he could do is send out $5000 checks from those savings. That's called FLOODING THE MONEY MARKET, which is precisely how Adolf Biden spent us into the worst inflation of the century. Yes, the taxpayers were SCREWED out of that money. But the answer is NOT to just throw out a bunch of dollars.

If the government is smart, it will use those TRILLIONS to PAY OFF THE NATIONAL DEBT, AND LOWER DEFICIT SPENDING.

Wanna help the taxpayers? Find the trillions in savings. Lower government spending and pay off the national debt. Then LOWER OUR TAXES. Why GIVE us a lot of money when you can just allow us to KEEP a lot of money? Why should our tax dollars have to go through YOUR hands.

And lowering those taxes should be across the board. Let the achiever save a few bucks in taxes, especially since they put that money into job creation to help expand our economy.

they not only plan to but have also started putting into action using the money saved to give billionaires and large corporations tax breaks--wake up!! You taxes will not go down. And Trump actually had the largest deficit spending in US history his first term.

The national debt goes up by a trillion dollars every hundred days, or 3 trillion a year, 12 trillion in 4 years. The US economy will collapse in 2 years if we do not stop this.
We must axe as much spending as possible and put it towards the debt.
Do reasearch on what it means when we can not pay our debts.

No. He didn't find trillions; he's playing you. The topline on his wall of receipts https://doge.gov/savings says $65 billion but that topline doesn't match the sum of the contracts listed.

The only place 卐LON "publishes" alleged savings is on twitter on his "wall of receipts." And he's been silently removing items from it🤣😂
DOGE Quietly Deletes the 5 Biggest Spending Cuts It Celebrated Last Week
Also
Nearly 40% of the federal contracts that President Donald Trump’s administration claims to have canceled as part of its signature cost-cutting program aren’t expected to save the government any money, the administration’s own data shows.

The Department of Government Efficiency, run by Trump adviser Elon Musk, published an updated list Monday of nearly 2,300 contracts that agencies terminated in recent weeks across the federal government. Data published on DOGE’s “Wall of Receipts” shows that more than one-third of the contract cancellations, 794 in all, are expected to yield no savings.

On the other hand, you are absolutely correct that a $5000 payment to every household is a terrible idea. That's tRump playing people again; congrats on not getting played by that one.

The reason 卐LON is making these unsubstantiated claims about $ trillions is to push thru a giant $4 trillion ten year tax cut based on "projected" savings. It's another rosy scenario that won't happen, and treasury will be left holding the bag. Again.

卐LON & the other billionaires don't want to do the sensible thing you suggested and see how much savings actually occurs. They really don't want to wait. They want to push the tax cut now while we're still in the dark.

This is the blackest of comedy.

Musk and he tech oligarchs are laughing at you.

Your wish is my command.

Unless you think silcon valley billionaires who have publically said they want to abolish democracy, establish 'network citeis' in place of the AMerican state and support trans-humanism care about someone like you.

Steve Bannon has started to work this out. I never thought I should tell someone to listen to that man but you seriously need to.

@Reason10 One of the real funny things here is that
https://doge.gov/savings says $65 billion total, which is FAR FAR less than the TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS he's got some people believing in. Plus, that topline total doesn't match the sum of the contracts listed🤣😂

And 卐LON quietly pulled the 5 largest "savings" contracts off the list (without changing the total). Celebrate them last week, pull them this week; the rubes will never notice🤣😂🤣😂

P.S. despite the lies people are spreading, there's nothing secret about these contracts, and Congress approved them in omnibus spending bills. You can look up contracts here:

I agree, that's the best thing to do.
Hell I'd feel like a bank getting free money
I wanna hear from trump fans on this post.
A. Do you care about a fabled $5k
Or
B. All found monies should go towards the nation debt..

I’ll bet it’s mostly B

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout I didn't expect to be endeared by a lot of right wingers. But the most educated posters here will realize I'm right. (That's kind of the way it always is here.)
@Reason10 im a trump fan.. and ive not heard a single other trump fan moan about not getting their 5K.

these straw man assumptions are past tiring.

but keep doubling down... triple down!.. 2028 will be glorious to witness the dems get demolished into the footnotes of history..

Like the man said, if Trump found a cure for cancer, they’d scream, all those poor doctors and pharmaceutical companies he’s putting out of business, that Trump he’s such a bad man, unbelievable 🙄

It’s a moot point, trumps billionaire buds have already laid claim to it all. It’s rightfully theres in their minds.
