43. If so then no mercy given. Get rid of filibuster and jam progressive legislation down

the throats of Republicans. Then appoint a truth and reconciliation commission to deal with disinformation. Go after Fox’s broadcast license for their complicity in the virus and destruction of our society. Prosecute Trump and family. No more tax exempt status for religious organizations who involve themselves in politics. Break-up Facebook, Google and others. Transform our society so that regular Americans understand the good government can do. Most of all, impeach Kavenaugh and other Federal judges who weren’t qualified. We need term limits. Appoint Warren to head a commission for the overhaul of our government to address voting rights, term limits etc. Reverse all Trump’s executive orders, rejoin Paris Climate, Iran deal and TPP, if possible. The list is endless but if Dems can sweep all 3 branches in Nov. we can transform America for the next generation. Trump maybe the best thing that ever happened to Dems. I hope Joe is up to the task because we cannot go back to the Obama days. I love Obama, he did a great job in the face of Republican obstructionists, but we need real progressive change. So many good Dems like AOC, Mayor Pete must be part of the administration to transform
America. So many priorities, repeal tax cuts and raise taxes on rich, climate change etc. etc. But it all hinges on winning in Nov.

I will predict a net gain of 8 GOP senate seats to the democrats come Nov 3rd. It will be an beachbumbob Apr 2020 #1
