Notice one thing. Joe does NOT have to hold up each and every thing he signs to ‘show off’ his signature. If, as I heard that a lot of the Repubs have no real clue what went on since their news comes from one source, Fox, perhaps showing a large screen ‘show’ of the results might enlighten them. To just “give him a break” as suggested by Haley or “move on” according to Cruz is not acceptable. That horror show we watched needs to be shoved down their throats, scald their eye balls and burned into their memories. He must NOT just…get off the hook.
Mike Luckovich is so self blinded by Trumpism that he can’t allow himself to acknowledge that Biden actually displays “Tolerance”, and is not just papering over “Bigotry”.
But what’s the one essential vitamin that all of these foodstuffs must have in common to keep a troll fit and fat and coming back for more? THEIR NAME!
That’s their true food. That’s how you feed a troll. They are the anti-Rumpelstiltskins.
Executive orders concern me. Not that Joe is doing anything wrong, but half this country is poised to believe the worst of him. I wish Congress could work together to enact lasting reform.
Note that FDR issued a whopping 3,721. Of course he had three terms to do that in, a war, and a depression to deal with. Woodrow Wilson issued 1,803. Another war to deal with. Obama issued 276 in 8 years. Trump 220 in four. George W. Bush issued 291.
So he’s decided the military will once again pay for everyone’s gender reassignment surgery and that dreamers get another few years in limbo. E.O.s lack staying power. Dreamers need real legislation and a real path to citizenship. He’s fiddling at the margins and papering over the problem. These E.O.s are mostly just symbolic noise that naive constituencies will accept as him “doing something” immediately, basically a PR Stunt, pandering without spending much political capital.
I’ll believe he’s really doing something about bigotry and systemic racism when he calls for the repeal of his crowning achievement as a Senator, the 1994 Crime Bill.
If there isn’t enough Executive Orders ( probably are) . . . Joe can use the Pardons that Trump handed out to those “Best People” he hired. NOT the people who attacked The Capitol Building on his orders.

Good for Joe. Nice that he’s not just talking, but working to do what he’s promised.

So what would you call the opposite of “white” wash? Full spectrum wash?

EO’s because the Congress and Senate refuse to do their jobs. The only thing they’re good for is obstruction and protecting their own interests.

It’s kind of pathetic that Joe even has to do any of that.. Shines a bright light on just what kind of “America” trump managed to build.

How To Feed a Troll
They eat complaints; they eat compliments.
They eat criticism; they eat praise.
They eat arguments; they eat agreements.
They eat facts; they eat fiction.
They even eat passing references.
But what’s the one essential vitamin that all of these foodstuffs must have in common to keep a troll fit and fat and coming back for more? THEIR NAME!
That’s their true food. That’s how you feed a troll. They are the anti-Rumpelstiltskins.

Trump and his terrorist cult believe their racist EO’s were their crowning achivements. The need for real legislation is now more important than ever.
