Because he didn't know shit about being President back then and all his campaign people got swept into PR spectacles while party veterans took over his real advisory roles
Now his campaign staff and MAGA in general are more hardened and can hold their own politically, hence getting way more done this timd
JD Vance is proving to be surprisingly effective for messaging and PR as well. Most politicians respond to journ*lists by ignoring their questions and answering with something they want to talk about instead, but Vance just tackles the question head on and dismantles the journ*lists looking for a "gotcha" moment.

I agree he is very effective at doing what is within his powers and trying to expand them in a realistic, Obamaish way.
I believe that pursuing his goals will leave the US worse off and not Make America Great Again but one I hope that isn't the case and two that's besides the point.
If what he's doing does materially improve the standing of America and conditions of its people will you come around? I didn't vote for him btw despite what you might think

I don't see myself coming around on expression of self being in the national spirit of freedom and personal/property rights (because what do you own if not yourself), and the views I derive from that.
But everything else? If America First actually works then I'd be pretty stupid to not support it. Pretty hard to imagine it outperforming "America is the steward of the world" but if it works, heck yeah.
According to recent reports, the cost of a new Arleigh Burke-class destroyer in the US Navy, specifically the Flight III variant, is significantly rising, with the average cost per ship jumping from around $2.1 billion to approximately $2.5 billion per hull
China can build a Type 55 for $900 million
According to reports, the Navy's Constellation-class frigate program has experienced significant cost increases, with the Congressional Budget Office finding that the initial cost estimate for the lead ship was underestimated by around 40%, potentially reaching a cost of $1.6 billion instead of the initial budget

This is one of the few areas where he might actually have some expertise. When the big defense contractors formed a cartel to screw over America on building rockets, Musk managed to beat them with SpaceX. Of course that was about 3,000 doses of research chemicals ago, so we can't assume he's still at 100%.
They have 100x greater shipyard production but those are mostly commercial shipyards. Of course in times of war they would convert them to military ship building.
For all the waste the Pentagon funding black hole is also why they are able to build things like jets that still mog anything the scheming chinaman can devise 40 years later

I still dont understand why thats a bad thing to get morons who dont keep track of the spending out, and then transferring that power to people who actually know what theyre doing. If you hate the way America currently is, this seems like the best news in a while.
Because Elon is doing ket, looks at a top line number like $7.4B and goes "hahaha the heckin anons on 4chan will love me if I make it $6.9B" and it doesn't accomplish anything. The most obvious thing would be trying to get F-35 acquisition cancelled because Rajeet 🇮🇳🇮🇱 posted an epic meme on X about DEI pilots or whatever
