Joe is doing exactly what I hope he would do -- rolling back Chump's exec orders and appointments, etc. And so fast -- boom, boom, boom!

If I were a cartoonist, I'd draw Joe taking a big old eraser to a great big board listing all of Chump's misdeeds. I just LOVE this!

.... he will win a stronger majority in both the House and Senate come the 2022 mid-terms.

Then he can really stomp on the progressive gas pedal and shift his administration into high gear to win 2024.

Joe would be best for this term. I wanted someone who already knew how to drive the bus, lots of experience, and could jump into the driver's seat on day one to steer us away from the abyss ahead. And he is proving that he is exactly that, even if I really didn't want to vote for another old, white guy.

It didn't take him long to say 'screw unity' (essentially) if it was going to slow him down. It took Obama a year at least. That's experience.

Right! Now he is not running the world any more while the “boss” just plays. This saggy jowels seemed to be hanging lower lately.

I have been dreaming of this moment for 4 years. I have spent 4 years visualizing someone coming in and undoing everything trump did. Just fire EVERY person trump put in place and rehire everyone he got rid of.

The answer is simple: He recited the oath, gave his speech, then walked into the White House and went straight to work.

And he hasn't stopped. If this is what dementia looks like, I'd hate to see him without it.

I am pumped that he is fiercely trying to right the ship as best he can and that certainly includes Judges.

That said at least a few Republican appointed Judges, including those appointed by Twitler, rebuffed Trump’s legal nonsense trying to steal the election.....thankfully.

Obama got 330 judges onto the bench, Trump got 230, Biden will easily get 200 so 530 of the last 760 Federal judges will have been named by Dems.

And there is pent up retirements, dozens of more liberal judges held out until Joe was in office to retire, you're going to see a ton this year.

SCOTUS is another matter, Reps stole 2 seats. But Breyer should retire, and all we need is Thomas or Alito to leave and it's back to being OK.
