In 2011, Obama signed an Executive Order to Cut Waste and Promote Efficiency. You know, like
@DOGE. πŸ˜‚

“We don’t need to wait for Congress in order to do something about wasteful spending.”

“We haven’t seen as much action out of Congress as we’d like, and that’s why we launched our own initiative to cut waste.”

“For example, we’ve identified thousands of government buildings that we don’t need. Some have sat empty for years. So we are getting rid of those properties, saving the American people billions of dollars.”

“Obviously, this is even more important given the deficits that we have inherited.”

“These are important steps that can save taxpayers billions of dollars.”

Fortunately for @BarackObama, unlike @realDonaldTrump and @elonmusk, fake news propaganda didn’t fabricate controversies and divide the nation over every decision he made.
