Trump gets clowned for hiring Elon Musk to run new 'efficiency department' & we're howling
Donald Trump hasnt even taken office yet, and hes already reshaping the government in idiotic ways. We knew that a second Trump presidency would not only mean an uptick in new and inventive ways to strip LGBTQ+ people of their rights but also ridiculous ideas that would waste time and tax-payer dollars we just didnt know hed start before he even took office!On Tuesday, the MAGA leader announced his plan to appoint Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to lead a new Department of Government Efficiency or DOGE. Yes, like the joke cryptocurrency Dogecoin Musk has invested in because apparently were living inside an article written by The Onion. (@) The new commission tasked with slashing federal inefficiency will be headed by an anti-trans bigot who to be fair has proven his efficiency skills on driving X (formerly Twitter) into the ground in just two years the social media platform is worth 80% less than two years ago when Musk purchased the company alongside a pharmaceutical exec who ran and lost against Trump in the Republican presidential primary. So lets get this straight: we need not one, but two losers to run a department dedicated to efficiency? Make it make sense.The internet has not been quiet about the clown show that will be running the government under Trump. The Office of Government Efficiency is off to a great start with split leadership: two people to do the work of one person. Yeah, this seems REALLY efficient, Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren wrote on X, while other people roasted the choice by comparing Musk and Ramaswamy to Wario and Waluigi or Parks and Recs Tom and Jean-Ralphios failed business Entertainment 720. (@) Musk was also Trumps biggest campaign contributor, and his company, SpaceX, has secured more than $10 billion worth of federal contracts in the last ten years. Its almost like he bought a position that would allow him to keep bringing in those sweet federal dollars while being given the power to oversee the government agencies that police his companies Musks companies are currently in the middle of 20 different investigations and lawsuits by federal agencies, the New York Times reports.So two super-rich men will be running a new department that, according to a statement from Trump, will provide advice and guidance from outside of government on slashing government spending but wont be formal government employees. What could possibly go wrong? (@) This isnt even the only WILD choice Trump has already made in the week since he was elected. He also announced that he will nominate Fox News host Pete Hegseth as the next Secretary of Defense.The jokes are coming in fast and furious, and we cant get enough. You cant cry if youre laughing, right? So keep scrolling to see the funniest reactions to Trump hiring two idiots for one job!
