    You'd rather socialism for the farmers, right? Oh I mean subsidies for the wealthy...

    Obama did that - not just a GOPer, but a popular one. No benefit at all.

    First 100 days will need to be largely spent undoing Trump executive orders and just unwinding damage all throughout government. First thing will be sorting out where political appointees have weaseled their way into civilian roles and figuring out how to work around all that. With Congress, the only priority will be Covid stimulus and trying to get a cabinet in place.

    The number one qualification of a Trump appointee is loyalty to Trump so Biden needs to clean house of all of them. He also needs to investigate whatever the hell Barr has been doing at the DOJ and whatever nefarious **** Stephen Miller has been up to. Biden should reaffirm that the United States is a nation of immigrants and he should reaffirm our commitment to NATO and our allies overseas both militarily and economically. He should see about the TPP and countering China as a trade threat. He should reaffirm Obama's clean water rules so that coal companies can't pollute streams and rivers. He should stop all drilling in the wildlife refuges immediately. Basically as Major stated, there should be a lot of reversal of executive actions.

    Obama could've done alot more through executive order. He had the ability to direct to the DOJ to decriminalize mar1juana but instead, all he did was instruct his doj not to go after states that had it legalized. Obama could've passed student debt relief and had pressure to even do something after the great recession but he buckled and didnt do anything. There's no doubt in my mind that the senate republicans are going to block every single bill that comes to the senate. Thats why I'm advocating that Biden does populist ideas through executive order to garner the support of the public. When Mcconnell shuts the government down next year it'll be easier for Biden to convince the American public of his side if he actually does something to help them. We all know the shutdown is going come the first year of his presidency.

    End the whole children in cages crap. Work on Covid19 and get our pandemic response in order. Getting rid of the Russian apparatus, and strengthen our security measures. Weed out anyone still connected to Barr. Develop plan for infrastructure development. Put together a plan for Broadband for everyone.

    Pandemic has to be number one concern right now.

    But, I’ve never understood why we can’t tackle affordable healthcare for all. Everyone says they want it. Everyone on both sides seem to want the same thing. It just feels like both sides are afraid the other side will get credit for doing a good thing so they refuse to work together. At least the Dems actually came up with a plan with Obamacare. But really, can’t the people in Washington just do the right thing.

    Republicans will never go along with Medicare for all. Socialism you know even though Medicare has been around since the 60s. Biden should use the crisis as hey you want Medicare? Opt in. You don’t that’s cool keep your plan. As the entire country realizes they can now go to any Dr and hospital instead of putting up with Aetna and Cigna’s rationing it will be overwhelming supported.

    I believe Biden has endorsed Medicare for those who want it.

    My parents are both on Medicare and it’s terrific. I would love to have that option for healthcare.

    Yeah, considering the first two presidential deaths were due to bad food prep and...(sigh)..long, rambling speeches outdoors.

    Address COVID-19 infections without overpromising on vaccines that may never ever come, and figure out the long-term compromise between risk mitigation, alternative clinical treatments and education re-openings that will get white, middle-class teenagers and young adults back on a more certain academic and economic trajectory.

    Also get the military budget under half-trillion, but of course that will jeopardize a lot of house seats due to cutting pork. The phrase "thirty ****ing years after the cold damn war" should start getting some kind of traction.

    Harden the government's IT infrastructure with bi-annual goals.

    Russia might not hit us, but they'll guarantee the knowledge will be there.

    If Biden can speed up the actual manufacture of vacines, (as well as distribution) it should be his highest priority. He should also speed up and provide the type of drug cocktail that Trump, Giuliani and Christie took advantage of. He should mandate mask wearing and treat control of the virus like it was war. Cutting down unnecessary deaths is a moral necessity and will help the real economy (not just the stock market) recover. This will establish that the federal US government can do something well.

    Virtually all other major accomplishments will depend on reestablishing the faith in the government that Americans had after WWII and up until the Regan Revolution and the polluting of the American mind by mass media funded by the very rich whose crazy evil hoarding of money required them to destroy this faith in American Federal government to enable them to have tax breaks.

    Certainly not the transgender bs
    Women and boys shouldn't compete together nor share a lockerroom. If you have a daughter you'd understand. Disgusting
