Elon Musk went to work for the Donald Trump administration vowing to make a difference in the way the government operates.

Brother … he left his mark. None of it, as near as I can tell, will be the stuff of legend. That is, if you count the destruction he performed during his time leading that idiotic Department of Government Efficiency.

He has to rescue his car company now. Its value has tanked. But when you’re the richest man on Earth, he can afford to lose a few trillion dollars and still be filthy rich.

I have been trying to wrap my noggin around what this moron accomplished during his time leading DOGE. He said he would slash trillions of wasteful dollars. He didn’t come close. He managed to piss off just about everyone with whom he came in contact, including — as I understand it — Donald John Trump. He boasted about taking a chainsaw to government agencies he determined were corrupt.

I will accept the idea that there exists plenty of corruption with the federal government. But you don’t dismiss tens of thousands of public servants who are there to do a job for the public they serve … and expect the department to miraculously cleanse itself.

Musk is now back in civilan life. He’ll return to making cars, launching space ships and presumably trying to recover the fortune he lost while torching the federal government. Truth be told, the richest man on Earth had no business making decisions on government programs that deliver essential services to those of us who need them just to make it through the day.

I just don’t know — nor will I ever understand — why Trump brought this clown into his sh**show in the first place.
