He's already used it to enrich himself just by naming it DOGE. Those Trump supporters who used to yell about draining the swamp are dead and buried under the muck.

The entire point of "DOGE" isn't efficiency if spending cuts at all.

It's all about shedding the deck so the right people profit the most.

As usual, the MAGA morons are getting blatantly played and, as usual, they'll do nothing about it.
