While trying to ignore the immature people wishing evil on those who voted for Trump or people who didn’t go to work today (had to remind a cousin that I went to work when Obama was elected despite not voting for him or in 2020 despite not liking the result) I just had to think that it’s interesting what happens when you don’t have a “deadly virus” causing endless mail in votes.
Also in a sane world the media would re-examine itself. Like I saw so many “actually the economy under Biden is amazing and under Trump it was actually Obama’s economy”. Guess people ignored it
I think they were so desperate to stop Trump that they shortsightedly used ALL their tools to take 2020.
Why is it shortsighted? Because now Trump returns, vengeful, with a BIGGER mandate, a broader coalition of actual allies and the rats have been outed thanks to 2020. If they didn't cheat and Trump won 2020, he'd be stuck with Pence still and have turtleneck still in Senate control. Now he has Vance, RFK Jr, Elon and we can only hope Ron becomes Senate leader.
Honestly Trump should forget all his other policy proposals and focus 100% on dismantling the Washington machine. Nothing else matters. Last time he cut a bunch of deals, compromised, got "Yes, Minister"'d on everything, and once he was out they reverted all his policies instantly. Not again.
Obama and Bush built all this in 16 years, Trump only has 4 to tear it down. It's not about getting a tax cut now it's about winning all the next races to come. Well, here's hoping.
The very first thing I would ask him to do is free the J6'ers. And have the people responsible for sending them to the gulag and the people who mistreated them getting the same treatment for four years.
Nothing bad enough happened on J6 for anyone to deserve a year in prison (much less the intervening amount of time). What usually happens to people who fight with cops? Anyways, their sentences could be commuted.
He has to make sure the voter base (us) AND the people he converted are willing to go up to bat for the next guy. So he's gonna have to dismantle the DS and get policies done for our struggling working and middle class.
