The next Democratic POTUS

[Mr.WeRP]

Better not ignore the past and “move forward”.

We need justice.

We need to prevent anything like a Trump again. There are far smarter and more evil versions of him quietly watching and waiting from the shadows. We need to send them all a message: that fucking with the People’s Democracy comes with the ultimate price.

Otherwise we are doomed to more greater suffering. No Garlands. We need prosecutorial bull dogs. Follow the law, but don’t give into the bullshit platitudes that allowed Trump’s second Presidency.

We also need to send a message to MAGA. Education matters. Individual freedoms matter. Make it impossible to discriminate. Pardon all illegal immigrants with no violent criminal records and give them immediate citizenship. Reaffirm this country’s status as a melting pot nation of immigrants.

And finally, but most importantly, make the rich pay while taking away their power. Codify the reversal of Citizens United and tax the ever loving fuck out of the 1%.

We may get only one more chance to do this, and that’s only if we continue to resist with tenacity.

1. Still waiting for Bush/Cheney war crimes trial

[Mr.WeRP]

2. I know, my friend, I know. Obama's greatest fault

Was sane washing Bush. I love Obama and have even met him. But this was a mistake on his part. The man is human, and I recognize that. He had more hope than he should have.

3. More political capital than we'll see in our lifetimes

oh well

4. How about Jasmine C. for US AG?

She would take care of business...

[CanonRay]

5. I wrote Biden a letter in 2016 about that

but it fell on deaf ears. I don't even want to hear the words next time. We need a Truth and Reconciliation Tribunal with subpoena powers.

[Mr.WeRP]

6. I know. I know. I railed against Garland. I knew he was a bad pick from the get go.

I called my reps and senators and they went with him. Biden regretted it later, and that’s all we need to know.

7. I will be very, very surprised if we see anyone running on holding people accountable

[RussBLib]

8. well I hope

for your sake and ours, that you will be very very pleasantly surprised. Surprised into euphoria.

[WarGamer]

9. President can't DO most of those things...

Need a Congress and allied SCOTUS.

Good luck!

[Mr.WeRP]

10. Tell Trump that

Like it or not, he has set the standard that the party who controls all three branches of gov’t can do whatever the fuck they want. If we don’t set things right using this standard, then we are idiots who deserve the evil that follows. Don’t be an idiot.
