'It's a joke': Top Dem slams Elon and Vivek's 'DOGE' as government 'cosplay'

^{Published on 2024-12-06 01:00:42 - MSN}

Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy, through their "DOGE" agency, seek $2 trillion in cuts to federal spending. Joy Reid and Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) discuss the implications.

The article discusses a critique by Rep. Jamie Raskin, a prominent Democrat, who slammed Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy for their involvement in what he describes as "government cosplay." This refers to their promotion of Dogecoin, a cryptocurrency that started as a meme, and their interactions with government officials. Raskin criticized the duo for engaging in what he perceives as unserious behavior, especially given the significant influence they wield. He highlighted the absurdity of high-profile figures like Musk, who has a substantial impact on financial markets, and Ramaswamy, a former presidential candidate, engaging in activities that blur the lines between entertainment and serious economic policy. The critique comes in the context of broader discussions about the role of influential tech moguls in politics and finance, questioning the implications of their actions on public trust and economic stability.
