Trump Vs Musk

Phil Harriman, standing in for Matt Gagnon, discusses the unpredictable weather and the ongoing feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump over the federal budget bill. Musk criticized the bill on social media, leading to a public spat with Trump. The bill, if passed, could impact Medicaid by requiring able-bodied recipients to work and excluding illegal immigrants. Kevin from Westbrook proposes a new political party, the Pragmatic Realism Party, to address these issues. Harriman questions the feasibility of such a party given the current political landscape and the challenges faced by those advocating for government reform.
