First, Hillary Clinton for AG. Second abolish electoral college abomination.

That takes care of the first day of business, January 21, 2020. As Inauguration Day of January 20th will be be reserved in joyous celebration, gleeful imbibing, reckless dancing, and singing of lovely song.

THAT JOE BIDEN WILL RECEIVE 12 MILLION MORE VOTES THAN SHITHEAD IS NOT EVEN PART OF THE DISCUSSION. MADNESS!

And having Hillary Clinton leading Justice, well, heartedly contents me with smile.

There are so many things she can do with the rest of her life. I can't see her taking another cabinet position.

https://people.com/politics/hillary-clinton-would-certainly-consider-serving-in-biden-administration/

Hillary Clinton is “ready to help” presidential hopeful Joe Biden, should he win the November election.

Speaking at The 19th* Represents Virtual Summit on Thursday, the former secretary of state-turned-Democratic presidential nominee was asked whether she would serve in the former vice president’s potential administration, if he wins in November.

She didn't rule it out.

“I’m ready to help in any way I can because I think this will be a moment where every American — I don’t care what party you are, I don’t care what age, race, gender, I don’t care — every American should want to fix our country,” Clinton, 72, said. “So if you’re asked to serve, you should certainly consider that.”

and on to the next generation in the party, tbh.

Cuomo would almost be worth it just to see the alt-right shriek, but Susan Rice should be the one.

No need to strap the political equivalent of a lightning rod to the Biden administration, especially when we ran on a unity ticket.

Plenty of equally qualified and less controversial options.

it’s a long term project. Maybe if we hammer the issue for forty years, there might be a chance at getting rid of it. But we’ve gotta be in for the long haul.

Adding maybe 50 EVs for the winner of the national "50 state" popular vote might be easier to get through?
