Victor Davis Hanson: The Left's DOGE Tantrum

The Daily Signal | Victor Davis Hanson: The Left's DOGE Tantrum
There is a growing outrage against Elon Musk, including threats to his life over DOGE’s work to find and eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse in the U.S. federal government. On this edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words,” a Daily Signal original series, Hanson delves into the reasons behind this backlash, its broader implications, and how the Left is making the “chemotherapy,” DOGE’s work, out to be worse than the “cancer,” wasteful government spending.

 “We're starting to see kind of an outrage where people are threatening the life even of Elon Musk and defending all sorts of indefensible expenditures.
.
“One thing I think is lost in this messaging, this tough love, this effort to restrain the government is that I think the Trump administration and Musk must convey that.
.
“They must say, ‘We don't enjoy putting people out of work.
We don't enjoy rounding people up, but we have to because these people—the Left, the Biden people, the Jacobins—they put us in that position.
They were the ones that destroyed institutions. They were the ones that broke the law. They were the ones that are bankrupting us.’”
