Hmmm, who was it, GAO that concluded DOGE has cost more money than it saved. It may have been an idea to reduce waste and fraud, but as an executed strategy is was a cluster fvck. Building a wall makes sense as a figurative concept, but as an actual physical structure it wastes a lot of money. Remote sensing technology does the job cheaper and just as reliably. Voter ID already exists most places. I showed my ID when I first registered to vote. But "broken elections?" Where are these broken elections of which you speak? The only people who have asserted "broken elections" are a few Republicans who lost legitimate elections.
Trump demonstrably wants to improve his own financial well being, and the spineless GOP Congress is enabling him to do it. Let's see, Trump has "improved" gas prices by getting the Strait of Hormuz closed. Trump has "improved" grocery and commodity prices by ramping up inflation through tarrifs. Trump has "improved" the safety of the U.S. and the world by cozying up to dictators and alienating democratic allied nations. Trump, like most folks, doesn't want Iran to have a nuclear weapon, and by the most reliable accounts, Iran wasn't pursuing a nuclear weapon, so he tore up the international agreement that was most likely to assure that outcome, then bombed Iran's nuclear research facilities to "obliteration," yet concluded that wasn't enough, so he bombed Iran again, starting a war that he has no idea how to end.
Trump has so demonstratively "improved" things that Iran is rethinking about whether it should develop a nuclear weapon for deterrence, has given Iran control over the Strait of Hormuz, thereby hiking the price of oil and fertilizer world wide. Yeah, that Trump guy, he sure has an odd way of improving things for America. Yet the MAGA morons continue to support this maniac.
Now, do Democrats want to improve anything? Yes, they say that they do. Unfortunately, although they do a few good things, what they are best at is shooting themselves in the foot.
