A lot of people are like "he quit DOGE because he's running for governor of Ohio now" and I'm like "yeah, because he realized he couldn't cut a trillion dollars off the federal budget, thanks for the non-argument." And it's a half-joke. Mostly kidding but also not really.

@LynAldenContact Not betting against elon. Good luck getting on that train.

@AlgorithmMD What deficit level do you think he’ll reach by July 4, 2026, the targeted end of DOGE?

From my perspective the question comes from a different angle. Do I think Elon will fail to deliver because there is no solution? Its hard to believe that, especially when he’s catching rockets mid-air. Endeavoring to engineer the “impossible” seems to be his specialty, and well thats the strongest argument I can offer.

@AlgorithmMD @LynAldenContact Welp, looks like he couldn’t quite engineer the impossible on this one

@buxdabomb @LynAldenContact The question is could he have without having his hands tied. The corruption was too deep. He suggests this on a Joe Rogan show.

@AlgorithmMD @LynAldenContact Ehhh I mean you’re tryin to have your cake and eat it too with that logic: In other words: a prerequisite to the challenge itself IS to have one’s hands tied; you can’t pretend that that’s a separate matter, it’s baked into it. Hence why it was doomed to fail.

Seems like dialogue these days cannot be accomplished without use of Ai. Despite the noteworthy argument, im just not interested. I will say this, im glad @LynAldenContact brought back this thread. Its been on my mind ever since and I always wanted to give Lyn the flowers she deserved. 🫡 On a different note. Lyn, do u scuba dive? Red Sea on my bucket list!

@AlgorithmMD @LynAldenContact lol zero AI was used to generate that response ser, just me and my brain.
