Never mind. It sounds like you don't remember the discussion. Ok.

I have not spoken to a single neighbor about the election. Not one.

I have Trumpers immediately to the South, with staunch liberals beyond them. Liberals to the North, not sure of the next house (new young family), but the next one is a SERIOUS Trumper who has no problem publicly expressing his disdain for immigrants, even though he knows I am one (but I’m white!) and his name is as Italian as it could be!

Yes, I put a Harris sign in my front yard, but that’s hardly controversial. People have yard signs all the time, about anything and anything.

You missed my question... Where did he say he'd fire workers "who cannot demonstrate loyalty to him"

The important part is the bolded portion of your claim.

The cut the bloated Federal workforce is not particularly interesting. That would probably be a good thing if you can lower the government's running cost and cut inefficiencies. I doubt anyone is opposed to that.

But the nefarious act is the 2nd part of your claim " who cannot demonstrate loyalty to him" The article above did not quote him saying that.

Hence why I asked.

I doubt very much he will last long. Trump is all about himself and Musk's ego is off the scale. They will clash, Trump will fire him, Musk will then whine and woman about it on twitter whilst nailing enormous amounts of ketamine.

Musk wants 2 things:

1) Chinese EV ban and removal of the EV rebates, as he’s the low cost provider and the Big 3 are still hemorrhaging cash on their EV development plans, and

2) NASA rocket monopoly for SpaceX, so he can float it and have the wealth of a mid-sized nation

Chicagoblue, I'm not accusing you of doing anything nefarious.

There was a time you were talking about your neighborhood abd said, The Trumpist neighbors down the road knew better than to put out Trump signs because they'd rather not be ridiculed. Even though everyone knows they are Trumpists.

To which I responded that it wasn't ridicule that Trumpist worry about. Rather it's was the fear of retribution. They fear That someone might destroy their signs. Egg their homes etc.

And I'm saying this FEMA report is another in a list of numerous examples of people on the left attacking Trumpists and their property.

I'm inno way was I suggesting you ridiculed or attacked anyone.

I would enjoin you to go back to sources from his previous administration and examine Schedule.F. At the mo I am very busy but I will return to this when I have time.

That’s because they live in a Blue area. I have friends who live in Red areas of IL and they wouldn’t dream of putting “Blue” signs in their yards.

We recently bought a lake house in a deeply Red area and I’m painfully aware of it. Our home designer is a Trumper, our architect is a Trumper, and I’m sure most of my neighbors are.
