The Bulwark Podcast
Will Sommer: Across the MAGA-Verse

It is striking. I mean, I feel like we're so just through the looking glass, but the idea of the president being like, look, my buddy's company is in trouble. You got to go buy, buy, buy. Yeah, I mean, I think you're right. I mean, there are... It strikes me as a sort of a weak point, a weak moment for Elon.

A lot of these agencies previously did not have heads or people were kind of the cabinet heads were just getting in control of them. Now we're starting to see, obviously, the Times reported on the Sean Duffy Elon fight. And I think there's a lot more of that, like, all right, buddy, like back off. Stop sending your the 12 year olds into my office to fire everyone.

I think there's this kind of classic challenge between what you describe as the Bannonite wing, perhaps, and their main focus is immigration, deporting people, building the wall, sort of, I think, Russia tilting foreign policy as secondary. But they don't really care that much about the budget.

And so they don't care about these kind of hack and slash things that they know are going to just anger people and get them kicked out of office or lose control of Congress quicker. And so that's kind of the fracture point.

Yeah, I think that's right. I mean, I think they're missing the or there's a sense of like, that's why USAID made such a tasty target for that, because it's like, you know, it's these these liberal pencil necks who are helping people in other countries.

It is surprising to me that the VA has been such an immediate target because, you know, you would think of that as something you wouldn't really hit to avoid alienating Trump voters. The other thing about Bannon is, like, I think it's important to keep in mind how much of his agita towards tech people is motivated by his belief that we're going to become robots, essentially.
