Indict Trump for his numerous crimes.
Make an example. Throw the fucking book at the orange turd.
Send Trump to prison for the next 10 lifetimes.
Its been said before on DU, but I like the idea of creating an investigative panel of numerous criminal investigators with the sole purpose of bringing indictments to the Trump family of criminals. A large panel of numerous special prosecutors, because it will take an army of prosecutors to fully uncover the crimes of one of human history's most notorious criminal elected officials ever.
Indict the orange turd.
Indict Ivanka.
Indict Eric.
Indict Don jr.
Indict Kushnar.
Indict Barr.
Indict the numerous others that enabled, aided and abetted the most criminal regime in American history.
Again, make an example of Trump so that future politicians will see what happens when laws are broken on a fucking daily basis.
If elected: Joe, if you accomplish this feat, history will forever speak glowingly of your presidency.
That's a legacy I can forever stand behind!

(15,568 posts)Congress must pass, and Biden must sign, legislation renewing the Independent Prosecutor law. IPs have more autonomy and authority than Meuller style Special Prosecutors. Their work could last beyond Bidens presidency if necessary, and couldnt be limited or terminated by an unfriendly AG.
One minor quibble: you said Bidens presidency would be a success with just this one act; IMO, it would be a failure without it, regardless of any other successes. To prevent a recurrence of the chaos Trump has wrought and protect the constitution and the rule of law, a Nuremberg style prosecution of the Trump cabal must be convened.
Declassify and release all the inappropriately classified and redacted evidence of this administrations misdeeds. Revoke the lease on his DC hotel. Seize other properties. Turn Maralago into a refugee settlement Center.
It is the only way to heal the soul of the nation.

(25,959 posts)With all the death and destruction trump has left in his wake, and with the millions of taxpayer dollars spent on themselves and siphoned into their pockets, the entire family needs to be brought up on charges. There is no way the country can allow them to walk off scot free after this. It just cannot be allowed to happen. The example that would set is intolerable.
Damn straight.
