Why all the fuss about Trump’s policy initiatives? Isn’t he just trying to set a moral tone for the Republican Party to make America great again?

Tesla? Propped up by government subsidies.

Trump went on a world tour embarrassing the U.S. every chance he got—cozying up to dictators, insulting allies, and acting like an insecure clown on the global stage. Other world leaders literally laughed at him at the U.N., and who could blame them? He treated international diplomacy like a bad episode of “The Apprentice.”

3. America’s Reputation? Trashed.

Twitter/X? A dumpster fire under his leadership.

“Free speech” on Twitter? Actually just a way to let conspiracy theorists and hate speech thrive while silencing critics.

Remember when Trump promised to “drain the swamp”? Instead, he built a bigger, smellier swamp and stocked it with crooks. His administration had a record number of corruption scandals—his own cabinet members resigned or were indicted at a pace never seen before. He even tried to profit off the presidency, steering government money toward his properties.

Then came his biggest disgrace—inciting an attack on American democracy because his fragile ego couldn’t handle losing. He lied about the election, riled up his supporters, and sat back watching the chaos unfold as his mob stormed the Capitol. And now, instead of facing consequences like any other criminal, he’s running again, playing the victim while begging for donations like a washed-up televangelist.

Trump was never about making America great—he was about making himself rich and powerful at the expense of everyone else. And Musk? He’s just another tech billionaire conning people into thinking he’s a genius while burning billions and playing the victim.

Trump’s biggest economic “achievement” was a massive tax cut… for the ultra-rich. Sure, working-class people got a temporary tax break, but those expired while corporations and billionaires kept their permanent handouts. He handed trillions to the wealthiest while driving up the deficit, and now Republicans pretend the debt is a problem (only when a Democrat is in office, of course).

Faced with the biggest health crisis in a century, Trump’s response was to… deny reality. He ignored scientists, spread misinformation, and pushed snake-oil “cures” like injecting bleach. The result? Hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths and an economy in ruins. But hey, at least he got to brag about TV ratings during his press briefings, right?

These two aren’t leaders. They’re grifters who rely on blind loyalty and non-stop nonsense to keep the con going. The only question is: how many people will still fall for it?

Mars colonization? Just another pipe dream to distract from his business failures.

Musk wants people to think he’s some kind of Tony Stark-level genius, but in reality, he didn’t invent Tesla, doesn’t engineer rockets, and spends most of his time posting cringe on Twitter. Just like Trump, he thrives on hype and cult-like devotion instead of actual competence.

Somehow, Musk and Trump are two sides of the same overinflated ego. Musk wants to play the “genius billionaire” while scamming the public just as much as Trump does.

Oh please, “moral tone”? Trump wouldn’t recognize morality if it smacked him in the face with a subpoena. This guy has spent his entire life scamming, lying, and throwing temper tantrums whenever reality doesn’t go his way. His so-called “policy initiatives” were nothing but a mix of self-serving grifts, outright incompetence, and reckless destruction.
