This guy is ten times smarter than anyone in trumps sphere. Especially trump.

I’ve read all of his books starting with Liars Poker 20+ years ago, he is great

A government OF, BY and FOR The People.....is a reflection of The People. The majority of the American citizenry couldn't pass a 9th grade civics test.

Musk should be just advisor and not run anything because it would be serious conflict of interest . Cutting his companies regulation would be serious violation.

[@bthink3610]

The federal government is the model of efficiency….just call them up and ask them for help with your treasury account or apply for a passport

[@JamesKass-wy9kk]

How about the Postal Service, Amtrak, etc.

[@LaimuteVilla]

How they plan to cut Federal expenses?what programs they close?

Here are few names of the permanent State: Blinken, Sullivan, Rice, Nuland, Kirby and bunch of others in the military/security apparatus! Vote blue no matter who!

I lost respect for Michael Lewis when he decided to carry some water for SBF.

Says the guy who comes on to voice his opinion…

Look at the presenter's right eye. It's a slit pupil. No it's not a glitch. Go look at other videos with him presenting. Same thing!

[@SenorJuan2023]

JD Vance appears to be just as sociopathic as Trump is. SCARY

Truth sayer ML

[@jhull5870]

Michael, for anyone with a sense of integrity, it should not be hard to tell the truth. Period.

[@Rainy_Day12234]

Lewis is an extremely liberal and is brought out from time to time.

[@jl1248able]

The federal work force is grossly overweighted to Democrats. How many government workers do you know that vote or donate R? I would do the same if my livelihood depended on tax payer funded government largesse.

[@anselmobencosme8377]

Why would vote for party that doesn’t believe in taxes. Is job security!!

[@MPDLR]

WHAT? TOWING JD'S LINE IS HARD.....TRUMP'S LINE WON THE PRESIDENCY.....

[@anselmobencosme8377]

He won be the smallest margin and lost every election after that!!!

[@michalfranczyk1241]

Like butter... 82% fat...
