US presidential candidate Donald Trump said he would appoint Elon Musk to head a government efficiency commission if he is elected to office in November.

“At the suggestion of Elon Musk, who has given me his complete and total endorsement… I will create a government efficiency commission tasked with conducting a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government and making recommendations for drastic reforms,” Trump told the Economic Club of New York.

      I’ve been saying for a few years now that I don’t blame anyone anymore for biting the onion. It is FAR TOO HARD to figure out what is life being absurd, and what is an absurd satire headline.

      The lines aren’t blurred anymore. There are no lines. The lines have ceased to exist at this point.

      I don’t understand life anymore, and I’d like to go back to politics being boring instead of being a circus.

        And that’s assuming the headline you’re reading even has any bearing on the actual article, or that the article itself is factual, both of which are increasingly more common worries now.
