No it's pretty effed up, particularly when at the same time his administration / DOGE are cutting programs that actually matter to someone other than Trump, to many other people in fact, and while billionaires like himself and Musk are benefitting as much as possible off the taxpayer dime (and in Trump's case, even sucker donors, literally donating to an effng billionaire who never spends his own money on anything, not even cleaning up after his own rallies). Trump and Musk pull up that ladder after climbing it so that no one else can.
When everything DOGE is doing inevitably has to be undone and it yields so many unnecessary expenses to unwnd it, there should be a way to hold someone like Musk personally liable for the cost and claw back every dime possible directly from him, forcing him to sell his stock, etc., because this crap is literally his fault.
The fact that Trump has been fixated on an absurd, costly, pointless parade ever since seeing a Bastille Day parade shows you PRECISELY what kind of pure MAN-CHILD he is and the only things he actually thinks about, utterly dumb things like renaming the Gulf of Mexico and a personal vanity parade that literally do not benefit anyone.
I swear, if I was POTUS I would be as extreme as Trump, but in the totally opposite direction. There would not even be state dinners in the White House, constant flying around in Air Force One (never mind the additional planes needed to haul around the Beast and such on every trip abroad), there would be no Easter Egg rolls on the White House lawn, no constant redecorating of the White House and countless other stupid things. And the SOTU would be delivered in writing, like it originally was, which is so much cheaper, and less of a security / logistical nightmare.
