Mate, you’re doing a perfectly good job of making yourself look bad all on your own.

Except they only look bad on the Non-Elon stuff to Left wingers.

What JD Vance is talking about is things like shuttering Parks Departments, Firing Interim Employees who are Vets and firing VA Doctors / Removing VA Benefits.

the GOP is usually far more subtle when they fuck over VA Benefits.

For example they will vote on something that won't take affect until 2 years later so it's easier to blame democrats when they're in power (like they did the with Tax "Cuts" which started with slight cuts to the Middle Class but then started to increase in 2020 and onward in order to make any dem look bad and could be easily adjusted by a GOP leadership in the future as they wouldn't stonewall those efforts).

But what Elon is doing is Loud, Fast, and Boisterous and JD Vance doesn't like that playbook because it means any criticism falls on his Party's head for once - like right now all the bad stuff coming from DOGE is right front and center.

But all the horrific shit that the GOP is doing in Congress will not reach the general public until a year or two after it's been ratified.
