e 25th Amendment and replace Biden with Harris. Now why would they do that given that Harris gets no benefit because she already lost the election? Well, I think it might be because of the Wall Street Journal reporting. Now that the Wall Street Journal reported that Biden's brain was toasted from the first day of office, and when the Wall Street Journal reports and everybody believes it, I mean no…

All right. And then have you noticed this pattern that whenever the Republicans come up with a plan to solve a big national problem, let's say a plan to close the border, solves a big national problem. Let's say a plan to reduce the deficit as in the DOGE work. Or let's say a plan, we don't have one but let's say a plan to end the war in Ukraine when Trump gets in office. So Republicans often have a plan. We don't know if that plan works yet because it's a plan. But they do come up with plans and they can say we are going to do XYZ and we'll do it right in front of you. We'll show you. It would be very transparent. And we think this works because this always works. We're doing things that always work.
What do the Democrats do? The Democrats seem to be entirely oriented at creating hoaxes, gaslighting, and ops to prevent Republicans from doing the obvious common sense things that the entire country wants. Now I don't think that was always the case. I think they used to compete on policy, didn't they? Am I wrong? Didn't they used to compete on policy? But they don't anymore. Do you know why they don't compete on policy? Because there isn't even a Democrat that thinks their policies could work. What is going on over there? I don't believe that any Democrat thinks their own policies could possibly work. And that's why they don't argue the policy. So instead they'll say Trump's stealing your democracy. He's a dictator. Elon Musk is using him for a puppet. Like they have to do that stuff because they don't have any policy argument at all.
So you basically have one group of common sense people trying to solve critical problems. And honestly it looks like they genuinely want to solve problems when I look at what the Republicans do and what they produce, especially in the Trump world, more in the Trump world than before. It seems designed to solve problems. Am I wrong? I mean it doesn't seem to be like it's just always a trick. It just seems like it's a solution. So we've got one party that solves and one party that just creates gaslighting to prevent the party that solves from solving.
So Elon Musk was pointing out, you know he got a lot of criticism for weighing in heavy on the 1,500 page omnibus piece of crap budget and people say that he's the reason it got killed. I said it's not the reason. I mean he's like a focus because we're all watching him. But he couldn't have done that without the complete support of all Trump supporters, basically every one of them. So if you have the support of 100% of the public, that's not exactly a puppet master situation. If 100% of the public backs you, which part of the public was in favor of spending too much money and putting together a 1,500 page bill that nobody read? Nobody was in favor. You can't find me one citizen. You might find a politician who would argue it, but a citizen? Find me one voter who says, you know I was really in favor of my politicians not even knowing what was in the budget but it was enough to kill us all. Nobody. Not one Democrat, not one Republican.
So you can't treat the situation where every citizen agrees, you can't treat that like it's some kind of weird puppet master taking control situation. He's simply agreeing with 100% of the public. He just happens to have more voice and more power and so we backed him. Of course we backed him. Of course we backed him. You also back me if I do a post on X that says something about don't pass this 1,500 page stupid budget. What do the comments look like? Every one of them is supportive. 100%. When does that ever happen in social media when 100% of people are on your side? Yeah, I just said don't pass a 1,500 page budget. Doesn't even matter what's in it. I don't need to know what's in it. Don't pass a 1,500 page budget a few days before Christmas ever. That's a fail.
So it's of course the best the Democrats have is trying to turn it into something that'll split Musk away from Trump. So that by the way, what's the point of it? What would be the point of trying to put a wedge between Musk and Trump? What would be the point of it? The Democrats are trying really hard to do it and what's the point? Does it help the country? How has that helped the country? It doesn't. It clearly doesn't. If they were even trying to help a little bit, you know what they would do? They'd say Elon Musk, wow you do have some skills. We should work with you too. The Democrats should be competing to see who can get these billionaires more on their side with good policies. But instead they just have to break up somebody else's relationship. It's like the ugly girl who can't get a date so she has to sabotage the pretty girlfriend who can. Oh that guy's bad. You should break up with him because I can't get a date. That's what it feels like.
Anyway, so Musk said he's trying to reframe it correctly and he goes, he's talking about the rejection of the 1,500 page version of the budget. He said this shows how much your voice matters, talking to the people. And having a president like Trump means that your voice is finally

heard. This is the right model and we should keep reinforcing it. Trump is a populist and he is very connected to the public. Musk is also a populist. I mean in effect. I don't know if he would describe himself that way but in effect because the common sense stuff tends to be pretty popular. So yes we have an amazing situation right now where a citizen who has just a few people following them on…
