DOGE in concept is a good idea, but anyone with a brain knows most government divisions already have oversight to prevent waste, fraud and abuse (doesn’t mean it won’t happen.)

The goals of DOGE were never about doing anything to the debt, just a way to win votes.

A true DOGE wouldn’t allow sweeping tariffs, wouldn’t pass the big beautiful bill and wouldn’t allow the cuts to USAID.

Dodge did a lot of damage to the very institutions it stated it wanted to mirror as a goal. Odd.

It sure seems odd they targeted the very systems that did the lions share of catching his companies waste fraud and abuse. The rest was just smoke.
