44. Nixon walked. Reagan walked. GW Bush walked.

If Trumpy-Boy walks, we're in deep trouble. All of Trump's accomplices, AND Trump, must be prosecuted. The crimes are nearly impossible to list. Biden has to clean up the nation and put down the fascist movement. He cannot permit fascism to compete with and challenge the Constitution. It is his biggest task, IMO. Oh, yes, there are plenty of others, all of which should be aimed at providing a stable foundation for continued prosperity. No, not for a strengthening oligarchy, but for continued prosperity for all citizens.

Trump DOES command a fascist movement. His followers, now given a true option of leaving Trump behind, but nonetheless sticking with Trump, are fascists. Fascism is the enemy of the Constitution. We've known this for ninety years and we must alway remember.
