18. So what

He should try.

LBJ was not a fire breathing radical - he was an SOB who did the RIGHT thing and gave up any chance of a second term as a result.

I'm sure my nieces and nephews (20's) and my cousins's children (20s to 30s) could give a rats ass about their student loans right now. Most would like to move to Hot Lanta or Houston/Austin but can't because they will be paying taxes - and not allowed to vote.

Ask them.

This is simple - the GOP hates black people and want to take away their votes and give their money to lazy people - and the more of us that say this - the more pressure on Biden to break laws.

Oh yeah - there aren't enough votes in the House to Impeach him, and not enough in the Senate to convict. So just do it Biden.

It will put 52 Senators in their place.

Question - do you fear him doing something that would completely topple the GOP Playbook?

The worst thing that could happen - won't happen. Pelosi and Schumer wont' let him get impeached and convicted.
