Buffett likes to say "never bet against America". It really feels like this time it may actually be different. All of recent actions from Trump / Elon reeks grift, corruption and idiocy.

What I'm really really curious about, is who's playing who ? Elon is playing Trump or the other way around ?

I likes Peter Schiff's take on DOGE and Trump's meme coin. He said for all the finger pointing Trump did at Biden for corruption, the only thing DOGE has done is increase the efficiency with which anyone can bribe Trump. And private or state actor can pay him off publicly and immediately through his meme coin.
