Musk thinks firing Federal workers will balance the budget. The current budget is about $2 trillion dollars. There are a little over 2 million workers. Musk has never done the math: there is not ONE FED WORKER who makes $952,381 / year.
The boy does to many drugs.
It’s called basic math. Take one number and divide by another.
He’s gaslighting everyone.
As is this article: Musk was talking about headcount. Trump can NEVER affect program spending by fiat.

Program spending is a Congressional thing and NO CONGRESSPERSON is going to kill programs in their state.
None.
Fuck the other states, but they are smart enough to realize if you cut spending in Vermont, they’ll cut spending in Oklahoma.
As bad as Republicans are, and yes, they are really, really bad—after all they are the party of pedophiles and criminals—the last thing they want is to be the party that throws constituents out of work.
Maybe.
Then, again, I didn’t think they would ever be the party of rapists and pedophiles.

It shouldn't be a surprise. They've been the party of the evangelicals and other hyper-religious types for a long time.
