Who's going to stop them?
These issues have always been the "third rail" of politics. The Republican Party would never have done it because they knew it would end them. But today's Republican Party is a group of people who are living in fear and merely trying to keep what they have, and not displease the two kings.
What they've done over the past two weeks is mind-boggling. That was part of their plan and it's working.
The only way to fight back is through the court system. But what happens when court orders are simply ignored? After all, how many armies are controlled by judges?
We're in a terrible place at this moment, and no one seems to know how to put an end to it.
I know I'm going to get slammed as a "doom and gloom" person, Nonetheless, I'm only stating what I see happening.
So I ask, what are we going to do when Musk/Trump kill Social Security, Medicare and all the other safety net programs?
