His ohio gov election thing is probably just a cover up. In any case I never understood how he could possibly agree to work with musk. Musk will overshadow and overpower everyone in Doge.

Executive orders are already such that it will make very very difficult for h1bs to survive and Musk has done nothing to stop them. It looks like Maga is winning in real life while musk may have won on twitter. Birthright citizenship is just a distraction while they pass all these other orders with real impact.

It's certainly is not a good time to be brown in America. White supremacist will be emboldened and will take upon themselves to harass brown folks. Without any fear of repercussions.
Browns in US who supported Trump are going to get FAFO experience

Honestly, even if he kept his mouth shut, he would've gotten the shaft. Did he really believe the party of MAGA and uber crazy christian nationalists will have time to listen to his spiel? They gave him a platform before election because it's useful - that's about it.

What were the H1b folks doing on Jan 6,2021 instead of rioting and storming the capitol? If they had done it, they would have been exempted from this executive action on birthright citizenship. No point in crying over this now.

Whether you agree with him or not, next four years will certainly be entertaining. Just watched the video where Trump was signing EO and casually answering all the questions and commenting on each topic. Guy holds no veil and appears very transparent in his thoughts. I have never seen a president sit with press for over an hour and just keep talking without any agenda.

I hope the entertainment continues longer unlike the everyday 'entertainment' during the early days of the pandemic that was fatally cut short by "inject bleach' comment :)
