Cutting the deficit isn’t the point. DOGE will purge the government of woke leftists and make sure Trump isn’t thwarted by the deep state like he was in his first term.

SCOTUS probably will allow Trump to reclassify attorneys and other senior officials as exempt from civil service protections.

I love this attitude "Well we can't touch 2 trillion of it so may as well not even review the other 2 trillion!"

Also you're forgetting that a big part isnt cutting spending but cutting regs.

Just getting rid of half the dumb environmental regs could spur growht in this country

Just stop indexing the social security ponzi scheme to inflation. Eventually the contributions and benefits will become irrelevant. Similarly, there's no need to make a concerted effort to pay off the debt; simply getting the deficit down to zero means we would pay off our debt over time and it would shrink every year due both to paying it off and inflation. Put excise taxes on stuff mostly used by the middle class to rich (airplane fuel comes to mind). The solutions to our problems are pretty simple.

Medicare, defense, SS, and serving debt are well over 70 percent. GOP will gut Medicaid for some “savings” (just pushed elsewhere since these are indigent).

Defense is the easiest to target and Elon actually has a relevant skillet since he knows how govt contracts work, but I agree he won’t have the balls to go after that

Maybe in 1985.

Here in 2024-25….

You could zero out the DOD budget completely and it wouldn’t even erase the annual deficit, or even come close. Military spending is no longer a major driver overall (mostly because it increases a few percent per year consistently, while other categories of government spending have gone BUCKWILD over the past couple of decades).

A comparably tiny fraction is military.

From this year I think the first several categories are entitlements (SS and Medicare), non-entitlement income transfers/welfare/poverty (AFWDC, Medicaid, a billion smaller programs), and interest on the debt, in that order.

Military comes next.

the "Social Security Fairness Act" that just passed congress costs $200 billion. it's extremely difficult to imagine meaningful reductions in government spending when they are still pushing garbage like that.

Which for context, is like a full quarter of the DOD budget. We just passed an INCREASE in SS that is equal to 25% of military spending. One bill.

BUCKWILD.
