I mean, if they don't pass the doge cuts in this budget, then yes they do win

and it's 50-50 whether that happens at this point
I thought about it for a minute,
I think; while this was always Musk's plan, and probably his timeline
I'm sure he's is frustrated how little support he got from everyone other than Trump
he had a lot of direct setbacks since the start of the year (not talking about stock BS that doesn't matter)
and only really got half of the non-doge stuff he wanted done, even with Trump's full backing
and the doge efforts were waylaid by everyone that wasn't Musk or one of his direct hires being incompetent
I would still bet on the doge cuts getting included, as part of some 11th hour deal
I would have liked to see Musk appoint a very public successor, as he's outgoing, ideally as a joint announcement with Trump
because I do think the perception of Doge being strong and a focus is as important as the actual stuff they do
federal cockroaches hide if they think they can wait everything out, and they'll bite and claw back everything they can as soon as pressure it let up
but if you continue to demoralize them like Musk has done, they will just give up and leave
lmfao
fucking grift
Already known that Arin was related to this
he ran the company they partnered with
0 from this
reminder the event itself gives 0, its only excess of expenses
so, they'd have to make the full cost of the event
and then, anything extra the charity would get 65%
assuming no other cuts existed
alternatively, the 35% cut is taken before the calculate profits
in which case they get 35% of all profits, then expenses are deducted, then if anything is left it goes to charity
actual megagrift
