1. Don’t tell me your value. Show me your budget & I’ll tell you your value — Joe Biden.

Biden will make history as the oldest person to lead the United States. While Kamala Harris will equally say “Hi” to history, as the first woman of color to become Vice President.

2. So we are witnessing history of “two firsts.” Wonderful, isn’t it? I’m happy Biden has put together a great team reflecting what the United States is known for, DIVERSITY!!

The team will be the first with “people of color” having the majority.

3. The team equally have 50:50 representation of both gender

Trump will depart the White House at 8am. He will give himself an elaborate departure. He won’t be attending the inauguration. He’s pardoned more of his aides on the eve of his departure, more than a 100 people so far.

4. He was elected a demagogue, he served as demagogue, he will be leaving as demagogue. So he ticks all the boxes.

I am sad the United States under Trump stepped out of international politics. I do hope Biden brings the US back to the table, stir away from further decoupling.

5. I sincerely want to see America join other countries, & occupy her rightful position at the seat once more.

America was built on “diversity.”

When a group of people left England in the 1600s to form the 13 Colonies of New England, they were escaping religious persecution.

6. They wanted a fresh start. Much of the founders of America left England on the heels of religious persecution.

Hunting of witches, killing of heretics swept across much of Europe at the time.

7. So the colonists were looking for religious freedom, lands & opportunities for wealth. The first colony (the Virginia Colony) at Jamestown Virginia, started it all.

So I’m glad Joe Biden will be reversing Trump’s travel ban, by taking a holistic look at Immigration Bill.

8. Biden’s “Immigration Bill” will basically provide legal status in 8 years, for the over 11 million undocumented people living right now in the United States.

Here is Biden making bold steps towards providing a pathway to citizenship (in 8 years) for millions.

9. America was built on migrants sweat, they gave their lives for America.

The obstacle is, “Biden hasn’t really provided any incentives to GOP to get them onboard with his audacious plan.” It’ll be tough debate in days to coming.

10. Right now, over 6000 Honduran migrant caravan is heading to US border. Some have COVID-19. Many of these migrants hope for a warmer reception from the incoming Biden administration.

This will be one of the issues Biden is going to deal with in his immediate days & weeks:

11. the worsening coronavirus pandemic, an economy under stress, & a shaky politics at home front. A return to status quo on immigration.

That said, I think the midterm elections in two years will largely depend on how Biden will fair in office.

12. I think GOP might take back the Senate, should Biden underperform.

Chief Justice John Roberts, will preside over Senate trial to CONVICT Trump. But on the face of it, there is really no reason for the Chief Justice to be there.

We shall see.

13. It’s obvious Senate trial will not commence before President Trump leaves office, & US Constitution made no “specific provision” for impeaching an ex-president.

But no matter the outcome of the trial, no one can accuse Mitch McConnell of bias.

14. Mitch’s been a conservative, a reasonable man at the senate. In my honest opinion, I don’t think the Senate should CONVICT Trump, because there’s been a lot of misinformation going around.

Nancy Pelosi has been on this crusade to impeach Trump since 2016.

15. It’s just so unfortunate America is at crossroads, but Trump himself has condemned the rioters mob in the strongest term. Unless more evidence come out, I think there is zero chances Trump will be convicted.

16. Extreme far-right who denied Biden’s victory, is no more than ten percent. Make no mistake, this second impeachment is witch-hunt taken too far.

A simple majority is needed at the senate to BAR Trump from holding any office in the future or disqualify his pensions.

17. This will be the first time in a hundred years, a president leaving office won’t be attending the inauguration.

It’s been tradition for an outgoing president to leave a letter at the “Resolute Desk” for the incoming president.

18. Reminds of Nicolas Cage’s “National Treasures - The Book Of Secrets.”😊

So, will Trump leave a letter for Joe Biden on the Resolute Desk?

What Biden won’t want, is for Donald Trump to be the focus of his administration. Biden should focus on governing America.

19. Leave the politics to his party. Do not let Trump define your administration. Turn the corner dramatically, & fast. Stir the “ship of state” to a new course. Ship of state, must sail.

Finally, I wish this ONE NATION UNDER GOD, a country that has given me so much, WELL!! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

since 2017*
