Republican presidents - Reagan, Trump - have eliminated many actions taken

by their predecessors. (Not sure about Bush).

Reagan wanted to eliminate many of the "New Deal" laws; not sure whether he succeeded. He even removed the solar panels that Carter installed in the White House? Why? to be a dick.

And now Trump is doing his most to reverse many laws, the most recent are environmental ones

So I hope that once Biden takes office he reverses many of these reversals. Yes, there are too many things that he has to do "on day one" perhaps appoints someone to go over all the laws and executive orders from this administration and eliminate them.

...I'm just hoping we can find a way to fire the right-wing hacks installed as judges with Mr. McConnell's help.
