Biden Win, So What?

[georgephillip]

What could the "Senator from DuPont" accomplish in his first two weeks of office to prove he is truly a "transitional candidate"?

Andrew Bacevich has 14 suggestions:

"AUGUST 14, 2020
Biden Wins, Then What?"

"Here, free of charge, Joe, is an action plan that will get you from Election Night through your first two weeks in office.

"Follow this plan and by your 100th day in the White House observers will be comparing you to at least one President Roosevelt, if not both.

"On Election Night (or whatever date you are declared the winner): Close down your Twitter account..."

"During the transition: Direct your press secretary to announce that on January 20th there will be no ritzy Inaugural balls...."

"On January 20th, the big day arrives.

"Noon, Eastern Standard Time: With the chief justice of the Supreme Court presiding, take the oath of office in the East Room of the White House in the presence of Vice President Kamala Harris and your immediate family.

"No inaugural address, no parade, no festivities whatsoever.

"Make like you’re George Washington: he wasn’t into making a fuss.

"When the ceremony ends, have lunch and get down to work."

That all sounds great until you realize Biden will fail for the third and final time.

Yep. America's not going to destroy itself!

If there's any Democrat who could snatch defeat from the jaws of victory, it's Biden, but I don't see any current evidence he's likely to lose to the Trump Pandemic/Depression.

I'm old enough to shudder at the thought that only Joe Biden or Donald Trump can inhibit that from happening:

"That evening: Speak to the nation from the Oval Office. Make it brief. Your address will set the tone for your administration. The nation has its hands full with concurrent crises.

"The moment calls for humility and hard work, not triumphalism.

"Don’t overpromise.

"Consider Abraham Lincoln’s second inaugural address as a model.

"Curb your inclination to blather.

"Abe only needed 701 words.

"See if you can better that."

The reason your conclusion is wrong is because you've built it on the false premise that Trump is the cause of the China virus and the governor's shutdown of the economy. You're in for another 2016 hysterical bewilderment if you actually believe adults can't see where the problems originated.

"Day 5: Issue an executive order suspending any further work on your predecessor’s border 'wall.'

"At the same time, announce your intention to form a non-partisan task force to recommend policies related to border security and immigration, whether legal or otherwise.

"Ask former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development Julián Castro to chair that task force, with a report due prior to the 100th day of your presidency."

Trump didn't cause the MAGA-Virus but his stupidity allowed it to infect and kill 25% of global totals with only 4% of the global population.

Don't worry.
Sleepy Joe can make it all better.

"So your number-one priority during the transition must be to do what Trump never came close to doing: devise a concrete national strategy for limiting the spread of the virus along with a blueprint for prompt and comprehensive vaccine distribution when one is ready.

"That said, it would also be prudent to engage in quiet contingency planning to lay out possible courses of action should your predecessor refuse to acknowledge his defeat ('rigged election!') or leave the White House."

"Day 3: Issue an executive order reversing the announced withdrawal of the United States from the Paris Climate Accords.

"Describe this as just an initial down payment on the $2 trillion Green New Deal you promised Americans during the election campaign.

"Joe, if you can make meaningful progress toward curbing climate change, future generations will put you on Mount Rushmore in place of one of those slaveholders."

If Joe wins, the first "so what" is they will open our borders and flood us with foreigners.
We have about 300 million residents in the USA.
Over 158 million migrants are expected to move here as soon as the left opens our borders. That figure is adults only. It doesn't count all of their children. If it did they would out number us in the first wave. And that is just the beginning. We are the #1 location people want to move to. They will keep coming, and coming and coming. And Americans will keep paying and paying for their healthcare, and educations, food. And with no police to protect us, they will simply take what of yours they want.
Shoot them? With what? The guns you used to have until some new leftist bill made them illegal? You shoot=you go to jail. Remember who was charged when the couple protected their home against Antifa?

The UN calls it the browning of Hemisphere #1. We should be calling it the death knell of a country...

Plenty if they win the senate too.

How would the fascists prevent it?

You people wear both names. Ergo, they would not.

Joe Biden has never been part of the US left, and he has no intention of promoting open borders.

Trump Distorts Biden's Immigration Plans

"Among the things the president got wrong or distorted:

• "Trump falsely said the task force wanted to end the practice of detaining immigrants who enter the country illegally. The task force recommends closing for-profit detention centers, and Biden has called for ending 'prolonged detention,' not all detentions.
• "He falsely said it would grant asylum to 'all new illegal aliens.' The task force said it would 'end Trump Administration policies that deny protected entry to asylum seekers,' and 'expand the existing asylum system.' It doesn’t say for everyone.
• "Trump falsely said it wanted an end to prosecutions of those who cross the border illegally. It calls for scrapping the Trump administration’s 'zero tolerance' policy and focusing on prosecuting 'human traffickers, smugglers' and other serious criminals.'"

Why would anyone continue to believe anything Don the Con has to say about anything?

Keep spewing LWNJ propaganda instead of thinking for yourself.
It'll be fun watching your head explode again this fall when Biden fails for the third time.

Stop being afraid of destiny.
