Just by the pure number of pictures (many duplicates) I can sure tell what position the Saline Post is taking on this issue! Shame on you! Trump and Musk are only trying to do something the previous administrations haven't had the guts to do. They are the real patriots of this country. When are Americans going to wake up?! We cannot continue to "kick the can down the road" any longer. Government spending is out of control. Obviously, many people don't seem to understand that. There's the old saying . . . . . "I see the need; but NOT IN MY BACKYARD".

So let me get this straight, Trump and Musk are patriots because they're doing this for the country and not for themselves?

I see. So, destroying relationships with our allis and with our trade partners, chaotically firing then rehiring people with no impact studies or larger plan to ensure needs of taxpayers who fund the government are met, placing unqualified sycophants who, the only explanation for which that we can find, bought their way into their positions (dropping out of the Presidential race, or looking the other way with blind loyalty, or actual financial transaction), knowingly destroying the stock market leading to massive losses for Americans and negatively impacting our corporations and economy, causing massive devaluation of the US dollar, driving inflation, destroying a recovering economy, levying tariffs that will only hurt US consumers and corporations, driving us into an avoidable massive recession and telling you time and time again that they will be giving more tax cuts to the wealthy and corporations (sold the last tax cuts saying they would bring $3 trillion back to the US - brought about $650 billion and actually cost the US about $3 trillion+ on on-going basis-$650 billion is a good deal - except when you pay $3 trillion for it), giving an individual without the appropriate security clearance (which reports indicate he would not be likely to qualify for) having access to and copying highly confidential data on citizens. All that in a mere two months. We will not recover from this and all that is to come in a in my lifetime or yours. Tell ya' what. Want to cut spending? Let's start with the over $26 million Trump's golf trips cost US taxpayers (a fair amount of which went into the cash registers of his properties) in just two months. You seriously want to tell us this is what you wanted? Strap in. You will soon enough come to realize what has been wrought upon this country.
