The billionaires who control the left decided to make Elon Musk the boogeyman at the start of the Trump Administration. Anything that went wrong anywhere was the fault of Cousin Elon and DOGE. Low-information voters think Elon is stealing their health care, social security and personal information because that's what Democrats lied about, knowing the media would swear by it. Nevertheless, he persisted because he felt the work DOGE was doing was important. His reward for taking on all the attacks and working twenty-hour days?
Republicans not doing anything to codify DOGE cuts into law, and then passing a big, beautiful bill that increased the deficit.
Welcome to the Tea Party circa 2010, Elon. We coined a phrase for this. "Failure Theater."
I was, like, disappointed to see the massive spending bill, frankly, which increases the budget deficit, not just decreases it and undermines the work that the DOGE team is doing. I think a bill can be big or it can be beautiful, but I don't know if it can be both. My personal opinion.
Cousin Elon is suddenly discovering the GOP isn’t serious about cutting spending.

Cousin Elon also lamented that "DOGE is just becoming the whipping boy for everything" and that "Something bad would happen anywhere, and we would get blamed for it even if we had nothing to do with it."
Let's be honest: some of this is on Trump, who doesn't care what is in the big, beautiful bill as much as he cares about getting credit for passing a big, beautiful bill. He also isn't someone who was never known as a spending or deficit hawk. He was always more of an "own the libs" hawk.
One of my biggest complaints about Trump has long been that he doesn't take the US debt (and yearly deficit) nearly seriously enough.
