A hero? Nah. Just a guy who did a good job...got the ball rolling, so to speak.Is Elon Musk still a right-wing hero? A genius? And if capitalism is a merit-based system, wouldn't he have to be?
Was? It's not ended. DOGE is still working...and working well.Was DOGE successful?
You need to ask the courts about that.What happened to the billions and trillions in savings? How many DOGE bucks are now in your pocket?
And yet here you are telling us what a great job they are doing but you have no numbers to back up your statement. I'm shocked.A hero? Nah. Just a guy who did a good job...got the ball rolling, so to speak.

I voted yes, but hero is not the word I would use.
1) Musk is a visionary who has shaken up entire industries and made the impossible seem doable. Thanks to him, electric cars went from niche to mainstream. His spacex has made landing rockets like it’s no big deal and he will probably make it to mars. With starlink, he's working to get internet to even the most remote corners of the planet. Then there are the tunnels under cities or his brain/computer tech - Musk doesn’t just talk big, he somehow makes happen. He is a genius-level organizer and arranger that comes around once in a lifetime.
2) Firing worthless government employees who create no value is always good. Doge didn't go far enough.

Two days after tech billionaire Elon Musk left the Trump administration, the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) has announced the cancellation of more than half a million government credit cards amid its crackdown on federal spending. In a post on X, formerly Twitter, DOGE said it had deactivated 523,000 credit cards following a 13-week audit....
Examples?
The courts have put millions in savings on hold with their "TRO's".We need to ask the courts about what? Are the courts holding the savings from DOGE?

Nah...that's just one example.So what does that amount to?
Oooo that much, huh?
Nah...that's just one example.
And what does that have to do with Elon Musk?
shrug...You'd think you'd lead with your best example, not your worst.
LOL the tunnels are a hilarious thing to bring up.I voted yes, but hero is not the word I would use.

Everything. It's the reason he's the richest man in the world.
And it's the reason firing government "workers" is a net benefit.
