will come soon. In 2026, we'll win the house and senate majorities again. In 2028, we'll win the WH if it's still standing. Then, we'll need to have a super aggresive DOJ official (not Garland the worthless), who'll backtrack all of these illegal acts by tRUMP and thugs, and charge literally everyone immediately on day 1. No rest for the thugs, no peace for these thugs.
