The Worst Thing Trump Did on 2/3/25

In the last few days, it's become clear that Elon Musk, Trump's BFF, a man who has not been elected to any position, nor has he gone through any Congressional approval process, has a much bigger plan in place than just loading himself up with unbreakable government contracts.

Trump has given Musk unfettered access to the Social Security database, the Medicare database, the IRS database, the Dept. of Education database (including all student loan/financial information), and the USAID database. He has taken private servers and employees of HIS COMPANIES into these organizations and seems to have downloaded the information for his private use. 

If you wonder why Musk is jeopardizing his billion-dollar companies (Tesla, Twitter) for this power grab with Trump, it's because he has access to a trillion dollars of OUR information he can use, buy, and sell to his heart's content.

It also allows him to create a blackmail/intimidation machine that will have complete power over our entire government, ensuring Musk gets what Musk wants.  

Proof he already has amassed a massive amount of control over the government is how quiet the Republicans are about such a violation of the American people.  The same people who scream about the government harvesting personal data are suddenly silent as everything heads to Musk's private servers.  Notice how suddenly all the Republicans are in line with Trump's grossly unqualified cabinet picks?  His takeover is already wielding results.

Musk is not the first person to realize a complete idiot who resonates with the masses is the springboard to their own agenda.  You'd think we as a society would've learned from the past's mistakes.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 2/2/25

After it was revealed that Elon Muck (intentional) was given access to sensitive information at the Treasury, including the Social Security and Medicare customer payment systems (reminder Musk is not an elected official, nor a Congressionally confirmed Cabinet member.  He's Trump's buddy!!!), Trump and Musk turned their ire against USAID, an organization tasked with overseeing humanitarian, developmental, and security programs in over 120 countries.  

USAID has been a growing villain for the Republican Party. They feel helping foreign countries with humanitarian aid is somehow promoting a liberal agenda (that tells you a lot about who these people are right there).  Earlier, Trump removed two top security officials at USAID after Musk (once again, just Trump's buddy) wanted access to sensitive materials, and they refused to give them to him (pretty sure Musk could not pass the clearance test in order to see those documents).

Sunday, Trump once again attempted to shut down a government agency without Congressional approval as he has told staffers to stay away and locked most of them out of the computer system for USAID. This was after they had shut down all USAID programs worldwide last week.  He is reporting USAID is now officially closed as of 2/3.

I've heard that at Multiple MAGA Evangelical churches across America yesterday, sermons focused on the evils of being a compassionate humanitarian.  They basically preached against the 'Good Samaritan.'

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 2/1/25

The absolute f-ing moron that is Trump, ignoring every intelligent person who has a basic high school understanding of economics, started an unnecessary and damaging trade war with the USA's three largest trading partners, Canada, Mexico, and China.

Conservatively this will cost at least $700 per household in this country and likely much more. Everything will cost more.  And no, our manufacturing base is not coming back.  They pay workers in foreign countries a dollar an hour (at best!).  They're not about to pay substantially more here. 

And we are about to learn the rest of the world likes Canada and Mexico more than they like us. 

Nope, this is only going to hurt.

The Worst Thing Trump Did on 1/31/25

It's clear by the air disaster response of the White House and the Trump Administration that caring, empathy, and compassion are impossible for the modern Republican to convey.

Add to that an epic level of stupidity and there are no words.

Trump, when asked if he was going to visit the crash site where a commercial jet hit a military helicopter and everyone died, said:

"I have a plan to visit, not the site. Because you tell me, what's the site? The water? You want me to go swimming."

...

...

...

What a f-ing idiot!

It's not like he wasn't talking crazy the entire campaign.  His supporters and the media made excuses for it.  Now that it's official national policy, I will never forgive the national news media for intentionally getting us into this mess.
