    Democrats need to not help. If the government gets shutdown, so be it. Republicans will ultimately be blamed. If Republicans want help, they need to get Elon out as a minimum condition and force congress to stand up to the oval office regarding impoundment.

      If Republicans want help, they need to get Elon out as a minimum condition and force congress to stand up to the oval office regarding impoundment.

      Nope. Nope nope nope nope nope.

      Nothing short of complete dissolvement of DOGE and a reversal of everything they’ve done so far should be accepted. And that needs to be done before Democrats offer a single vote to assist.

      Putting Elon’s removal as a condition would just lead to Republicans saying “Sorry, we asked Trump pretty please can you fire Elon and he said no. What else can we do? Too bad, so sad, but hey thanks for bailing us out again.”

        They’re busy working on their “messaging” to let Americans know they hear you and care, while doing nothing but collecting donations and messaging.
