Under Trump, the executive branch wasn't nearly that popular because it was basically rebelling against the White House
Under Biden those 2 million employees will be loyal
Not good
It's fucking loserthink to think it's good to lose the Presidency, in the hopes that your odds of winning it back in the future improve
The Presidency is orders of magnitude more important than the legislature, which is basically nothing more than a glorified oversight board
The silver lining is that we won't have court-packing, new states like DC and PR, and other "democracy reforms" that would have made Republicans a permanent minority party
But that's not much consolation
Obama only had unified government in 09-10 and still did massive damage

And open up two additional new special counsel investigations:
- Special Counsel to investigate money laundering/tax fraud by the Bidens related to Burisma and the China deals
- Special Counsel to investigate 2020 election fraud
All these Special Counsel investigations should be staffed at least 90% by people who donated to President Trump
Because under the Mueller standard, it's preposterous to think that biases the legal judgment of the lawyers involved
*IF* Biden wins, his DOJ appointees should be forced to swear under oath that they will not interfere in the special counsel investigations in order to be confirmed
We control the Senate, after all, and Trump let the Mueller investigation be completed
Some helpful questions for the press to ask Joe Biden, given that he won't answer whether he would pack the court, a thread
"Don't you think it shows contempt for voters not to answer a simple question about the Supreme Court?"
"Mr. Biden, what other questions can we not ask you because they will 'distract' from issues you think are more important?"
"Mr. Biden, you say you want the American people to have a say in who the next Supreme Court justice is. Do you think they should have a say in whether or not the court is packed?"
