Social media posts cited what they called the "US Debt Clock" and said, "DOGE has saved taxpayers $64 billion dollars in just 17 days." There is no evidence to support this claim. The posts pointed to USDebtClock.org, but the website provided no source or explanation for its "DOGE Clock" counter with a rapidly increasing multibillion-dollar savings total, which had hit $121 billion by Feb. 21. https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2025/feb/21/social-media/does-a-us-debt-clock-prove-doge-has-saved-64-billi/

Let's face it. You don't care about facts. When it was pointed out that you're claim about Trump inheriting 200 million instead of 500 million was false, you reply was that you didn't care. You don't care about facts. Facts you don't like you claim are leftist. Stay ignorant.

Ignorance is bliss. Stay happy.

Try to keep in mind that he his gather gave him about half a billion dollars. And a business that Trump ran into the ground. Whether smart or not, ethically speaking, he's a slimeball.

I think the reason that Trump supporters here are having problems understanding the problem is that they don't know what "conflict of interests" means. (Maybe because they are not native speakers of English?) Anyway, here's a definition: "A conflict of interest (COI) is a situation in which a person or organization is involved in multiple interests, financial or otherwise, and serving one interest could involve working against another. Typically, this relates to situations in which the personal interest of an individual or organization might adversely affect a duty owed to make decisions for the benefit of a third party." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conflict_of_interest

It's funny. Your takeaway from this is that Trump is smart. So you think that other presidents didn't engage in flagrant conflicts of interest because they weren't smart? He's just greedy and ethically clueless. The system of governance always assumed that the Chief Executive would have some respect for ethics and morality. So it's not built for a creature like Trump. Or a Supreme Court that enables his criminal activity. Or Americans who actually believe there's nothing wrong in setting up a system where bribery is enabled.

It was a joke. The point being of course, that Trump's meme coin makes it possible to win his favor with money with little chance of being outed. You may recall that Qatar once helped to bail out the Kushner family from a disastrous investment made by Jared Kushner. It was a deal that made no financial sense for the investors. It was only due to a quirk of NY State law that Qatar's participation was revealed. At the time, Kushner was in charge of Middle East affairs. He was working to reconcile the Saudis and the Qataris.

Thanks for sharing your feelings with us. That is so wonderfully feminine of you. Even if utterly irrelevant to the topic at hand. Still, good to see you're in touch with your female side.

Another case of circular reasoning. The hornets nest or whateve please you to call it is corrupt because Musk claims it is which proves that it's corrupt. As pointed out before, William Barr tried his damnedest to proof such a claim in the case of the Justice Dept and completely failed.

More nonsense allegations about my nationality. Even if my views differed from many commentators known to be Americans, you still wouldn't have a valid point. But they don't. You do have something massive to back up your claims though: fanaticism.

Just because there were 40 anonymous whales who purchased huge quantities of Trump's meme coin just before he took office? Why don't you understand that because they are invisible that means that they are also transparent? And transparency is crucial.

I recall going into this with you before. And you never offered any proof then.

Now be fair. For all we know for sure, he could be living in a room in the Brisbane YMCA. A roomie hasn't left in the past 50 years. For all we know for sure.

Well, now that you put it that way... It is to laugh. Clearly, evidence and/or reasoning are concepts unfamiliar to you.

Unlike Musk, his competitors are in no position to fire anyone there. Donald Trump has identified Musk as the leader of DOGE. So how do you know people were 't fired at his behest?

If you can't understand why the income or nationality of an anonymous poster is impossible to prove, you are even more clueless than I imagined.

The organization about a billion dollars. She didn't. And if they commit fraud with the money, and then you can prosecute it

I bet you have a very happy life. After all, ignorance is bliss.

Stop lying. Not even the right wing slant on the grant to that organization claims that Stacy Abrams earned a billion dollars. As for comments about my alleged nationality and income, it shows what low standards you have that you actually offer such ridiculous allegations. They're as ridiculous as my allegation that you not an American. I have no way of knowing your nationality. But unlike you I know that such allegations are ridiculous.

Making it personal is a sure sign that's someone has nothing. You've got nothing.

Another case of willful ignorance.

You are clearly incapable of understanding why conflict of interests laws and rules exist.

You know this how? Just another faith-based comment. You might want to look at this: https://archive.ph/t2oXf#selection-4813.0-4833.1

President Trump has been celebrating the published savings, even musing about a proposal to mail checks to all Americans to reimburse them with a “DOGE dividend.” But the math that could back up those checks is marred with accounting errors, incorrect assumptions, outdated data and other mistakes, according to a New York Times analysis of all the contracts listed. While the DOGE team has surely cut some number of billions of dollars, its slapdash accounting adds to a pattern of recklessness by the group, which has recently gained access to sensitive government payment systems. https://archive.ph/t2oXf#selection-4813.0-4833.1

Another Musk fanboy.
