It’s not going to be hard to find rampant criminal activity among Republicans. Their only hope is that the media provides cover for them, again or that Democrats ignore their crimes. The people want accountability. We cannot normalize lawlessness among corrupt politicians anymore
The Biden/Harris administration is going to have to concentrate part of its energy into correcting patterns of behavior in Washington that led directly to where we are now. I want to see reforms at all levels of government that ensure criminals can’t occupy those positions.
Everyone is justifiably putting in their bids for priorities for the new administration, as should be expected. But just like Christmas wishes for that shiny new thing, it may or may not come. We’ll have to wait and see. Til then, at least we can be assured that Trump will leave.
Since the election, I’ve had to remind myself that we won! It wasn’t a flawless victory, but hey, so what? Trump lost and he’s taking it just like a loser of his caliber would. That part of this national nightmare is over. There’ll be hand wringing because we worry about shit.

People are really ignoring the fact that Trump ignited some people’s asshole gene. It’s the same white grievance bone Bernie tickled on the left. That’s the secret sauce to it, but part of the delivery is a personality. Does Tom Cotton have one of those? I haven’t seen it yet.
Other thing Bernie and Trump have in spades is the ability to repeat themselves endlessly without getting bored or tired. It takes something special to do that. Then there’s the propensity to lie. Gotta have that in a huge supply just to get passed reality. Gotta be a master liar
This last election cycle seemed to ignite even the infrequent voters who never come out. Some of them will still be motivated, but many are now being dissuaded to participate at all on the Rep side. These next elections might hit different without Trump to excite the rabid base.

Keep a tabulation of all applicable charges for when his day in court comes.
See how easy it is to make 2 or 4 of these criminal Republicans inconsequential? Keep your eyes open, they all have dirt.
This is chess not checkers, play to win. Although, I see life as more of a game of poker...(different story). Still, expose, delegitimize, investigate and nullify these crooks every chance we get...

At no point in modern history has the media embraced examination of its own mistakes related to its coverage of politics. Where’s the @CNN town hall on that topic? Where’s the panel discussion about your extensive failures during the election @MSNBC
Think about how quick certain media outlets jumped to criticize Democrats performance in an election where Biden received the most votes ever and flipped 5 states from 2016. Have they examined ANYTHING that they’ve said or done over the last 5 years? Have they been flawless?
Nancy Pelosi and her brilliant tactics staved off the worst aspects of the Republican coup of the last 5 years. Media outlets welcomed Russian assets as part of their punditry. Who’s Lewandowski work for now? Kayleigh was @CNN nightly. Dave Rubin and Jimmy Dore @TYT folks.

As Democrats, we have to fight multiple battles on different sides of the aisle and hold off the media as well. We have to be better at controlling the narrative which is much harder with such a big tent. As Democrats we welcome varying points of view and never 100% agree on shit
That’s how it always is, Democrats have to work harder. For BP this is normal. We always have to fight from behind which is why we’re the base of the Party. We’re used to struggle while some others aren’t which is why their support is flimsy at times (neoprogressives,55% WW etc).
Still, we have to change the perception. We get played by the media by latching on to their disarray tropes. They love talking about how Dems don’t do this or that perfectly. Left media like TYT gets the base of its money and support by pushing that narrative. It’s a cash cow.

Can we put tests in place to prevent despots and unfit criminals from being allowed to run for POTUS?

It should be a law that taxes are shown. A LAW! That could be done in the states can’t it?

The person must pass the same mental/emotional fitness exams military and police do.
The person must be able to pass a security clearance.

The person must be able to answer pertinent, basic questions related to the Constitution and Federal law.

The POTUS can’t profit from any personal business while in office or be prosecuted afterwards.

Is that too much?
Trump occupying the WH for four years as an unfit, criminal, despot has revealed that the true weakness in our government structure is the Senate.

Through control of the Senate, Republicans have allowed a dimwit, manbaby like Trump lead the country backwards while they looted.

The media needs to ask Republicans why they legislate against the will of the majority of Americans. Their districts added together don’t represent anywhere near a majority of Americans. When are Republicans going to fix what they broke? Why aren’t they held responsible?
Republicans and the media can always rely on neoprogressives to help them promote certain bullshit ideas. Right now, they pushing the narrative that Dems lost seats in the House. So fcuking what? We still have the majority. That’s what matters! That means Dems have the mandate.
The mandate comes from a majority in the House which represents the MAJORITY of the American voters. Period. The Senate is a gerrymandered body governed by minority rule. Democrats have a mandate with the most votes for POTUS ever and the majority of voters for the House. #Truth
