Chapter 3: What is the controversy surrounding Zelensky and US support?
economy, and most importantly, flagrant, you can go to TikTokEconomicImpact.com. Did you know that? Now, you know, first thing, just discussing Doge really quickly. I think that there are very few Americans that would say that they do not support a reduction in waste and inefficiency. Correct. Especially when it comes to government institutions.
So this is a bipartisan measure that Americans are supportive of. Doge has become incredibly partisan. First, can you tell me why you think that is?
I think it is about wars of credibility, of institutions, and of process. So something I think is- What does that mean?
I don't know.
And speak to me emotionally.
I'm not talking about politically why it has. I'm talking about why the average person on Twitter feels compelled to be so critical of Doge. What do you think is being communicated to them? And why are they having such a knee-jerk reaction to it, knowing that they do want to reduce government inefficiency?
For them, it's about Elon's complete and total judgment over this. They don't trust Elon. I would say that's it. And is that fair? Yeah, I do think it's fair. I do think it's fair. Let's make that argument. What's the steel man against?
The steel man against Doge is that you have a person who is unelected by the United States, who is a sole power over what gets cut, which violates the Constitution because the Constitution, the power of the purse is within Congress. Congress gets to decide what programs get cut or not.
He is, according to them, illegally shutting off and doing these things and also at times has conflicts, major conflicts of interest. any of the decisions that he has made.
