(59,885 posts)I want to hear, "I know we are in more danger of losing our Democracy, and with it the American Dream, than we have ever been in my lifetime. I understand what is happening to you in the midst of that. I understand it cannot be business as usual and "let's just move forward" when we are able to get rid of this regime. I understand we need to restore justice and rebuild the fundamentals of our government from this shambles so that it serves you and not the billionaires. That will be my job. Your job is to never underestimate how much damage republicans have done to you personally, and to work with me and with Democrats to rebuild an America we be proud of again."

"We are going to audit; we are going to claw back fraudulent gains and stop this elite class of grifters from robbing the American people of their healthcare and retirement." "We are going to investigate and prosecute abusers of children."
My American Dream won't be complete without perp walks.

US presidents are a variable lot, aren't they?
From the humble, intelligent and well-meaning ones to the demented and pure evil.
All had glued on admirers who dissipated soon after they left office.
Hope that happens this time, and soon.
