RTd this thread,
which says Trump should act fast and
“Fire people who can't be fired. Force them to litigate.

«“We are seeing in real time how a government can melt in front of our eyes,” Alejandro Bercovich, a leading Argentine TV and radio journalist told me this week. “I never thought they would collapse this quickly.” […] It’s not only Milei’s administration melting away; so too are his once-packed international throng of cheerleaders and wolf-whistlers.

Elon Musk actually said this in an interview:
"These lovely small towns in England, Scotland and Ireland, they've been living their lives quietly. They're like hobbits"
"And so one day, 1,000 people show up in your village of 500 and start raping the kids"
