      The Trump administration fired key experts that could have helped with the current situation in the Strait of Hormuz.

      Let’s say, hypothetically, that there was an organization who’s sole purpose was to dismantle a nation from the inside and permanently remove it from the world stage as a major power.

      Would that organization act any differently from the Trump administration?

      Reminds me when they threw out all the pandemic response planning… Before a pandemic.

      At quick glance I read it as „Doge Cult Purged Entire“. Still isn’t wrong

      Republicans hate all forms of expertise because they think everything is simple and being around experts reminds of them of how stupid and incapable they are.

      A group of Tesla drivers got rid of the oil and gas experts? You don’t say.

      They were only there to drum up business for Elon Musk, they weren’t trying to help America.

      I posted when DOGE was active that all they were doing was reducing oversight of the administrations actions. Criminals like to operate in the dark.

      This is a complete replay of Vietnam.

      Before the Vietnam war, we purged all the experts in South Asia for knowing what they are talking about when it came to the spread of communism. The experts have predicted that was using communism as a flag, but was really fighting a war of independence from being a french colony. That very reasonable deals can be made through negotiation. But that view point was too communist sympathizing so those view points were purged.

      After the war, it turns out they were right. Vietnam after using Chinese resources to win the war, immediately kick Chinese influence out of Vietnam, seeing them as another colonial power. All of that could have been predicted.

      To think, the same thinking behind DOGE is used to plan cost cuts and firings across the private sector every day.

      Trump and his cabinet dont listen regardless and they’ll get fired for giving advice he doesnt like.

      This is one of the moronic things about DOGE.

      We need people in government to serve when stuff goes wrong – and it always will.

      We need experts on the team to deal with shocks and disasters. But those DOGE morons looked at stuff like this (and FEMA, DOE, DOD, NIH, CDC, etc. etc. ) and wondered why we need infectious disease experts „just sitting around“.

      They do this because they know they don’t have a legitimate reason for the war, and are kowtowing to Netanyahu and Putin due to their kompromat on Trump. These people would tell them not to do it, and they aren’t interested in whether it’s the right thing to do. They are doing it to line their pocketbooks and keep their handlers from releasing kompromat.

      Its like we’re all watching a comedy about GOP d1psh1ts running around waving their hands in the air shouting obscenities and lies for their billionaire puppeteers.

      History will not be kind to the mess they made, listening to their depositions revealed they did not even know what they were doing

      I’m not an oil and gas expert, but even I could foresee:

      1. US goes to war against Iran killing its leaders
      2. Iran responds with attacks (or threats to attack) on ships in the Strait of Hormuz
      3. Oil shipments from Gulf states stop
      4. World oil prices rise

      You have to be a fucking moron not to be able to foresee this. Unfortunately, America is run by a fucking moron.

      And we didn’t restock Us Oil Reserves before this stupid war either, when the price was the lowest its been in years.

      Absolutely brilliant!

      An administration full of tragically unserious people who are making decisions that affect everyone. Literal fucking clowns.

      Foot meets bullet.

      Face meets rake.

      Head meets ass.

      I’m becoming convinced that Trump’s job was to run the country into the ground at the behest of Russia, while many of the cabinet picks were funded by Israel to smash and grab what they can from us while we fall.

    34. Everythings_Fucked on

      What an absolute stroke of genius to appoint a team of arrogant little dipshits to chop up the government, who think they know everything without having experienced anything.

      kakistocracy: A kakistocracy is a government run by the least qualified, most unprincipled, or incompetent citizens—literally „government by the worst“.
