All y'all can do is watch LMAO you have no other choice...well you did with Harris but this is what you voted for. You gave him all 3 branches of government with no guard rails so why the fuck would he care if he pisses anyone off? NO ONE is going to hold him accountable.

He's pretty much stated that he has no concrete plan of action on the campaign promises that he ran on. When asked, he said "bringing grocery prices down won't be easy", or some such shit. He said this because he's now back in the White House, and he either has no plans of ever leaving, or he knows that this will be his last term, so he doesn't give two shits about what he promised anyone. His mission is accomplished so he just gave all of his adoring Stans the middle finger.

Of course not.

If you consider that the whole thing was a huge con game, then everything that's happening makes perfect sense. The voters were the marks, and all that was said in the campaign was whatever they wanted to hear based on their fear and hatred. The nonsense simple solutions to complex problems.

As with all con games when the mark pays or votes, they are no longer needed. The whole point was to get in power and create a personally controlled oligarchy. Trump wants to run America like the Mafia state of Putins Russia, with him skimming off the top. It's not complicated.

He has concepts of a plan.

Trump is very much a "no forward planning, just do it for the cheers" kinda guy. It's still possible that he'll do the populist thing and fire Elon and Vivek so that people like him.

Either Trump follows his elitist interests in which case MAGA tears will be tasty and plentiful OR he follows his populist instincts in which case Musk and Vivek get punished. Either outcome is good.
