The Trump-Vance Administration (The People Who Work For Trump)

They don't know how to fight back. Fighting back isn't a pitched battle between two armies. That's just the culmination of a war, the fight starts long before the violence starts.
Wars are fought over decades not days.
He had a better team this time around. To take on the elites you need to have your own counter-elites which he did have last time in the form of Bannon (who was an Ivy League graduate and a banker prior to him getting interested in the political/cultural wars) but he was taken out pretty quickly. He also had Michael Flynn who was a high ranking military guy but one that was actually interested in the MAGA movement as opposed to pretty much all the other generals Trump brought on but he was taken out pretty quickly too. Trump didn't have access to a lot of other talent so he had to rely heavily on what the establishment GOP gave him to his determent.
Compare the first 1 month of his term this time around to the first month of 2016. Trump tried a similar blitz too previously with things like that executive order banning people from these Muslim countries coming into the US but that was thwarted pretty quickly. There was tons of protests and lots of legal challenges that forced the Trump team to retreat. There was also Russiagate which claimed the scalp of Michael Flynn. Bannon was forced out I suspect because of all the "President Bannon" stuff that the media was pushing that drove a wedge between him and Trump. Last time around it seems like Trump's team was mostly playing defense especially when it came to the Russiagate stuff which has a multi-pronged attack from the DNC and the media that I have to admit was pretty effective.
This time around it seems like the Trump Team is armed with a much better team and also with lessons learned from the first time. It's the media and DNC that are on the defensive now with Trump flooding the zone with his EOs and with DOGE laying waste to the supply lines of the Democrats. The media is trying to cut off Musk from Trump by calling Musk the true president like they did with Bannon the last time this tactic seems to be pretty ineffective so far. Musk and the tech-bros are the counter-elites that Trump has now at his disposal to take on the entrenched elites. I'm a bit wary of these people since I feel like this is an alliance of convenience and in a different environment (such as during the first Trump term) they would be actively fighting MAGA but it's clear for the moment the alliance is paying off massively.

Warning: Language. Lots of f-bombs. She is visibly angry over the tax money being wasted and abused. And we feel the same way: p*ssed and angry for being overworked and overtaxed.

Whoa. It’s like the last neuron in my brain flamed out and combusted into an irate, vampire-eyed, female manifestation of my consciousness and filmed a Tik Tok video.
Jared Kushner is no longer around to sabotage the administration

My only beef is a tax “holiday”. No. Unacceptable. IRS eviscerated and shut down, forever gone. Employees sent to the gulag.
A man can dream....
Nothing hurts more than writing that quarterly check, worked your ass off all year just to be punished for it.....now more infuriating than ever.
I feel you on that. Disgusting to think it goes to Angelina Jolie…

What happened now?
What do you expect? People are pissed off, small biz owners especially. These kinds of posts will probably only grow in numbers as long as the economy is in the toilet.
She got paid $20 million from USAID for her brief visit to Ukraine and photop with Zel.
No. It is called righteous anger (or indignation). Her anger is directed at the politicians' and federal government's sinful behaviors and wrongdoing over stealing taxpayers money for personal gains.
