20. Leon has to ask people to work for no pay because trump appointed musk to a non-existent agency with no budget

trump is playing musk for a fool




Who is gonna tell them ?

Donald Trump has appointed Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to a non-existent cabinet position. They are both appointed to head up the DOGE. The DOGE is supposedly the Dept. Of Government Efficiency but in reality it does not exist. There are no employees and Musk and Ramaswamy have no power all.
Did Trump pull a fast one on Musk and Ramaswamy? It sure looks like it. Appointed to a non existent pseudo cabinet position means zilch. Wonder how long it will take for Musk and Ramaswamy to realize they ,like millions of Trump voters have been duped by Donald Trump ?
