It may be like 1936 with FDR.
DT is facing 91 felony counts. One court declared him a rapist who is paying $91 million to his victim. Another court declared that he committed fraud. He looks like he has early stage dementia.
When a guilty verdict on criminal charges is imminent, DT will flee to Russia.
Since the Republican National Committee is paying DT’s legal expenses, there is little money for field offices or candidates.
The MAGA candidates are such extremists that voters will usually pick someone else.
Vice-president Pence, Justice Secretary Bill Barr and others in the Trump administration have told voters to pick someone else. I imagine that George W. Bush and Richard Cheney will do the same.
I never was not comfortable with the abortion issue. Women should have some say-so over their bodies but how much? The Dobbs decision clarified my thinking. The Supreme Court decision is more restrictive than even what the Catholic Church says. Roe vs. Wade was about right.
In Texas, adoption costs are about $25,000 to $50,000 per child. Make this $500. One American family in 6 is food insecure. Make the Child Tax Credit permanent. Figure out how to feed everybody.
The bloated Pentagon budget is equal to the next 10 countries in line. Cut the budget by half. Keep 1,000 nuclear weapons while decommissioning the rest. Keep 100 overseas military bases. Close the rest.
See President Biden´s Christmas message:
Jill and I send our warmest wishes to Christians around the world celebrating Easter Sunday. Easter reminds us of the power of hope and the promise of Christ’s Resurrection.
As we gather with loved ones, we remember Jesus’ sacrifice. We pray for one another and cherish the blessing of the dawn of new possibilities. And with wars and conflict taking a toll on innocent lives around the world, we renew our commitment to work for peace, security, and dignity for all people.
From our family to yours, happy Easter and may God bless you.
On the same day, DT sent 77 deranged messages.
We were told empowering the rich would empower us all, but all it did was make them greedier and meaner, make the rest of us poorer and meaner, and trigger endless combat over crumbs between everybody and everyone.
We have the greatest wealth disparity in human history. Fifty eight individuals have as much wealth as 3.3 billion. In the US, three men have as much wealth as 160 million. Change the Income Tax Code to what it was when Eisenhower was president when the wealthy individuals and major corporations paid taxes big time.
The One Percent are magicians. Their wealth is invisible. The news media and the Democrats do not talk about it. Meanwhile, DT voters are left behind and look to black people, gays and immigrants rather than the billionaires who are picking their pockets. President Biden must let people know what is going on.
I think our policy on Gaza is terrible. President Biden should have placed sanctions on Israel like he did on Russia.
The DT followers have enthusiasm for their cult leader while I see no enthusiasm for President Biden and the Democrats. I see much imagination from the environmentalists and the war abolitionists but Democratic leadership is asleep.
In the US and many other countries, we throw away about one-third the harvested food. With some effort, we can feed everybody in the US and the world. I do not have specifics. When I see Apollo 11, the Internet and the James Webb telescope, feeding everybody and ending poverty is a simpler task. President Biden must start this effort.
End poverty everywhere. Reverse global warming. Reduce the Pentagon budget. Ask for the Sun, the Moon, the stars and half the planet.
I predict overwhelming victory for the presidency, the Congress, state and local offices. It will take money and effort. I see it coming.
Sincerely,
Ed
