I think that rather than adopt the poor/scary/Unconstitutional/dangerous behavior of 45, future presidents should do better.

Just go to the liberal handbook and deflect as usual.




If Donald Trump deleted all of his emails, wiped his server with Bleachbit (Like Hillary) and destroyed all of his phones with a hammer, would the Mainstream Media suddenly lose all interest in the story and declare him innocent. (Like Hillary)

Nothing. It's a power grab and should not be countenanced.

Healthcare

Too many Hospitals, Pharmaceutical Co., Insurance co. and Lawyers are abusing and profiting off of human suffering.

The Opioid epidemic. Does anyone NOT know an addict?

Too many drug commercials.

Not enough focus on Mental Health.

The right to die. People shouldn't be bleed dry for profit and kicked to the curb when they run out of money.

Our processed food industry is poisoning us.

I can go on and on.

Guns is a close second

Climate is sadly third. It would be nice if this was the only big fix we needed, it is much needed. The U.S. is the biggest contributor, we should lead the world on cleaning it up.

Gun control is a losing proposition for the Left and there are no perfect answers that will please everyone for the healthcare mess so I would say it has to be climate change.


I can see it now the Democrat President will declare a national emergency that will ban plastic straws and then they will move to make AOC's green new deal a reality. Airplanes will be grounded for us but not the elite and the politicians and they will begin to retrofit every building in the US to make it "green" .



In reality I see the Dem President taking up where Trump left off with his wall once hundreds of thousands of displaced people from failing countries like Venezuela start showing up to be given everything they desire.


The Dems that were once for border security and a wall as part of that are only against it today because Trump is for it.

When Trump is gone they will change their tune back to protecting America.



If not then the next "National Emergency" agenda will be giving amnesty to the estimated 20 million illegal aliens.

I can hear it now "these poor people, the huddled masses living in the shadows are facing taxation without representation so we need to give them a voice in the laws that affect them blah blah blah" and there you go.


It will be amnesty.

National Healthcare. At least it provides jobs and doesn't go against the constitution much, and if I must, I can sell all of my things and ask the Amish if there is room for one more person in their fellowship so I can get out of paying taxes.
