Comment on Regarding a US Government Shutdown: What's stopping Musk from continuing to fund DOGE with his own money and continuing to tear apart the government while all the federal workers are put on leave?

Fun fact. The government employees still get paid while on a shutdown.

This is the first I’m hearing of this as well but who knows. Maybe it is a good idea. But the maga Nazis are actually 100% in love with musk as well and blindly follow him now. It’s actually disturbing how they think Elon is “fighting against fraud”. So if Dems do force a shut down, idk republicans are so well brainwashed they would believe something along the lines of “we need to take over the white house and remove all Dems because they’re terrorists and are stopping the country from working and staying open” and trump will say “radical left” and then Nazi riots would happen all over the place. And democratic officials might actually start begin to be slaughtered.

This is, though, a hypothetical absolute worst outcome. Realistically, people will cry on social media about democrats while other will cry on social media about republicans. But I think Dems should do this plan.
