I don't care to defend the guy at all, but is there anything he's done to actually help the US economy, as in, the general public, not billionaires? Has he done anything that made the US more money?
The military under Hegseth has gone hard on removing protections from harassment, and removing women from leadership. There are a lot of people happy about frat culture being OK again, and about having less chance of reporting to a woman.
Some people who make most of their incomes from tips will see a small tax break for a few years (the billionaire tax cuts are permanent, the tipped wages cuts are temporary).
Nothing broad-based helpful, no, but people who want to find a rationalization to support him have a few niche things to point to.
sighs okay
