Wasn't DOGE supposed to reduce government waste?

What a fiasco it has been in the past 2+ months. Trump's MAGA racist base loves the idea of deporting all immigrants whether they are legal or undocumented. He ran on it with the disgusting lies that they are all murderers, rapists, and people from mental asylums. (He is too stupid to know that legal asylum is different from a mental asylum)
Immediately after Trump was unfortunately sworn in again they built an immigrant/illegal camp at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba. They paid for and put up 30,000 tents for that detention center. Then the administration so concerned with government waste started sending undocumented migrants to Gitmo. A giant military plane with all of those employees and all of that fuel. . . to send 20 people. 
Then a US judge said that they could not receive any more people because the tents were inhumane without water, electricity, etc. How much did 30,000 of those tents cost? How much did the flights cost?
Well now the GITMO immigrant camp is being abandonded and the migrants there are being returned to the US. . . on US flights that cost more money. Where is Elmo and DOGE? Where is the explanation for that ginormous waste of US tax dollars?
It was all a photo-op to throw red meat at the MAGA cult. Pathetic.

Agree. But now we're going to get into a recession/depression and all of those red state poor people who adore Trump are going to get hit the worst. The senior citizens too. No sympathy. They voted for it.
Trump of course wants to give everything to Russia and screw Ukraine. We saw that last week.
I have no respect for people who voted for Trump.

Here’s a big problem with a looming shutdown: they’ll say, “See, we told you those employees weren’t necessary.”

@NJChicaa — to some extent, that wouldn’t be a bad idea. Can you imagine iDJiT not being able to stop privately-owned companies that support things he’s shutting down?
