Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin assailed President Donald Trump’s economic agenda after his address to Congress, accusing him and his billionaire adviser Elon Musk of targeting Social Security and other benefits.

While the Democratic Party seems to be at a loss as to how to respond to President Donald Trump and his billionaire buddy Elon Musk’s rapid (and possibly unconstitutional) dismantling of the federal government,

Trump on executive orders and decrees has sparked significant controversy, particularly in relation to his collaboration with Elon Musk, the world’s richest man. Despite Republicans controlling all three branches of government, Trump has bypassed legislation in favor of unilateral actions, signaling an effort to create a precedent where the president holds unchecked power. As journalist David Sirota points out, this strategy aligns with the goal of establishing a presidential authority that operates like an “elected king””, which undermines the checks and balances of our democracy. Sirota also criticizes the Democratic Party for its failure to mount an effective opposition. As he notes, the party seems to lack a clear message or agenda, leaving voters uncertain about what it truly stands for. The absence of a compelling economic platform has allowed Trump to dominate the narrative, particularly among working-class voters. Meanwhile, Democrats continue to support policies and nominees that contradict their opposition to Trump, leading to confusion and a lack of trust. Elon Musk's role in shaping Trump’s agenda is also a concern. By overseeing the gutting of federal agencies, Musk’s actions align with private sector interests, further blurring the lines between government and business. As Sirota suggests, this is not about restoring democracy but rather enriching private contractors at the public’s expense. As the nation faces these challenges, the need for the Democratic Party to present a coherent and unified platform has never been more urgent. Without it, Trump’s unchecked actions and the party’s inability to oppose him will continue to undermine the foundations of American democracy.

Unfortunately, the Democratic Party has no credibility to attack Elon Musk for having children outside of marriage.

His unusual governing arrangement with President Trump is opening Republicans up to being yoked politically to Mr. Musk, who polls show is broadly unpopular.
