17. Revenue, The Supreme Court and campaign finance reform are my top priorities
Thu Jun 18, 2026, 11:17 AM
Thursday

The cost of fixing everything Juilus Geezer has or will destroy and steal will be enormous.

Repubs tax cuts for the wealthy mean our debt will continue to skyrocket.

The 2 Santa Claus theory means that repubs will scream about any new spending because we have
so much debt and can't afford it.

Somehow Dems are going to need to get a spine and raise taxes on the wealthy.

They also need to alter or get the supreme court line othewise they will shoot down any changes Dems try to make.

As far as our relationships with allies, that will take some years as the American voter has shown that they are fools and will elect a convicted felon. Our allies won't trust that 4 years after a Dem trys to repair the damage the american voters will put in another repub that will just destroy it all over again. Our allies will need to see repubs act responsible before any long term trust can develop.
