The best thing that could happen to this country right now would be for us to start paying the REAL COST of electing tRump, like trillions of dollars to keep the country and the economy afloat as we deal what his incompetence has wrought.
The price in human life is going to be staggering, and it will continue long after hes booted out in Nov. Americans should not be asked to risk their lives to go back to work in the middle of an exploding pandemic. No sir. We should be staying home, following the protocols that WERE bending the curve until tRump and his enablers pushed to open the country too soon.
Congress best resign itself to the fact that they are going to be writing checks in the tens of trillions of dollars to get us thru this, with most of that money going directly to the American people in the form of unemployment benefits, direct relief payments etc. We cant afford it! Bullshit! Youll find a way to afford it just like the average American has to find a way to afford it when they fuck up in life. And YOU fucked up by enabling tRump. YOU, not us, created the disaster we are living through. Do NOT attempt to throw the onus of your fuck up on our shoulders.
It is not worth the life of a single American to go back to work under these conditions to ease the pain tRump has inflicted. Its costing us and it will continue to cost us.
And thats how it SHOULD be.

We if we see the future with the dark triad problem and we do see it.. We can find a way to remove them. Dig up every speck of dirt,investigate everything do not stand for ignoring sopenas and dig it all out.. You will find these psychopaths have done something that will justify kicking them off the bench.
If Dems win control of all three branches they can go scorched Earth on the republican trash trump left behind.
They can also make compassion and empathy required abilities to run for office or be elected to a position of power. There are ways to detect psychopaths. Require the person to submit to a psych eval by a forsenic psyciatrist.
Dems need to be vicious right back to these monsters and take these fuckers down. No more high road bullshit. The high road is what kept these psychopaths in there to wreck the havock we deal with now.. No pardons, give them no place to hide,no peace,enforce the law like a honey badger and tear them out of our government.
The Dems need to soul search,they have to trust themselves to find a remedy to this and DO it and enforce it. Write it in a way that there are no loopholes. And enforce it.
Psychopaths cannot run anything without destroying it.

(100,068 posts)Because Trump didn't pay attention that a cataclysmic virus was coming that could tear down our very social fabric. He tore down all the safety nets we had in place to protect us from such a disaster. And guess what? Look what happens.
If you want your old way of life back, you need to learn this lesson first. Then we can talk about rebuilding society into something better.
