I think we're in a even worser global situation than after the US and allies fabricating the casus belli to overthrow the Saddam Hussein regime in Iraq. 🧵

As Trump and Musk attack each other, don't forget: their ongoing DOGE cuts have made your life worse.

It doesn't matter who wins the Trump-Musk feud.
