They're quickly discovering they need certain people. Like the nuclear oversight people they fired. They don't know what they are doing, and the plan cannot work.

Step 1 of Project 2025 is to fire all the federal workers. Step 2 is to replace them with Trump loyalists.
Problem is that Step 2 is fraught with so many natural road blocks that it's completely insane to think it could work. Hiring that many people all at once is nuts. Simply entering them into the payroll system takes effort. Oh, you already fired all the payroll entry people? How is that going to work?
Nope, they just drowned the federal government in a bathtub while leaving the tyrannical parts smoking a cigar the next room over.
Presumably, those cargo trains still need to run on those routes, but they have no economic incentive to do it fast. You don't want even regular passenger services and cargo on the same line if you can avoid it. Amtrak has a lot of issues because of that. For high speed rail, it could never live up to its name.
America has tons of land. Even without reusing existing interstate corridors, there are some viable new corridors.
Honda doesn't want this to happen. They're under pressure from the Japanese government to keep the company going so the country doesn't lose a heavy industry company. This is probably a demand to try to wiggle away.
KEEP GOING I'M ALMOST THERE
I, too, love hearing the sounds of my fellow citizens suffering. Makes me hard. Want to jerk off together?
It'll be interesting to see how Prophecy of the Pope people handle it when this pope gets replaced normally like all the others.
The only possible way DOGE would eliminate that code is if the agency doesn't exist anymore.
Would it be taken as a sign to invade France, not invade France, eat a French bread sub sandwich for lunch, or ...?
That's a delusional answer.
Yeah, great. Is DOGE going to fix any of that?
But they do need certain things to work.
I think another poster may have the right of it. Step 2 was never expected to work, and the point is to destabilize the US.
