So 2 years of "NO EXCUSES" ... Let's see what the Democrats do with it.
(I predict ... "nothing of substance" because real change is the last thing any 'congress-critters' want.)

The BIG issues of the last 20 years:
  • Health Care Reform (Availability and Affordability)
  • Crumbling Infrastructure
  • Rising National Debt
  • Falling Education Scores
  • Declining Middle Class
  • Loss of Manufacturing / Loss of Union Jobs
  • Immigration Reform (Illegal Immigration & Path to Citizenship)
  • Opioid Crisis & Prison Reform
There is no need to reach across the aisle or blame the other party. For the next 2 years (at least) it is 100% under Democrat control. The last time the Republicans had this opportunity, they squandered it. Time for the Democrats to "Put Up or Shut Up". After January 20, it is no longer about Donald Trump and we discover whether the Democratic Party can actually DO anything except hate Donald Trump.

It seems to me Obama poisoned the well in many ways, same as Clinton.
About the national economy, they sent all good manufacturing jobs overseas.

Trump IS the reason why the GOP lost in Georgia!

Ok, maybe. So what will the Democrats DO now that they have all the control they can possibly want?
The only thing they have steadfastly promised to do is PROSECUTE TRUMP. That solves NONE of the big issues and has no impact on my life. So they have 2 years to show results or face 100% of the blame with nobody to point a finger at. There is no "Republican Senate" blocking all they want to accomplish.

As I said, such chances are few and far between, and the Republicans squandered the last single party control taking care of Billionaire Taxes and Inheritance without touching any of the big issues that I listed. Will Democrats to any better?

Biden will squander a lot of money in the Paris Accords which the USA has already successfully completed. He will align with Iran to help them develop an atomic bomb to attack Jerusalem with American help. He will trash billions on climate change and he will move closer to China.

How do you know? If you had sent Wellington over here to steal the Louisiana Purchase, Jackson would have whipped him the way he did Wellington’s brother in law Pakistanham.
I think that he is probably correct. Think about it this way, the Democratic Party is a coalition of Old Southern Democrats, Old Union Democrats, Radical Environmentalist Democrats, LGBQT Rights Democrats, and Black Lives Matter Democrats that have nothing in common except a hatred of Donald Trump. Trump really is the glue holding the DNC together and energizing its base. Once it comes time to actually GOVERN, I expect something resembling a dysfunctional European Coalition Government with each faction pulling in a different direction and little getting done (except dismantling whatever Trump built).

The election was crooked and Trump did not lose. One good thing is that the coming recession will force the Brits to get off the dole and they will have to go to Germany for spare change. If they had sent Wellington over here to steal the Louisiana Purchase, Hackson would have smashed him and Napoleon would have won against the UK.

Georgia has been GOP for about FIFTY YEARS! The Senate for about TWENTY YEARS. So, HOW comes they lost?

is it true that national debt under Trump, apart from the Covid payments, is the worst ever?

OK.
  • We are already squandering TRILLIONS, so "more of the same" is no real change.
  • Israel already has Nuclear capability and only respect for the US prevents them from dealing with Iran unilaterally. If the US stops being an "ally", then Israel's hands are untied. The Seven Day War showed that God still watches over Israel.
  • China has already surpassed the US in GNP. The reality is that absent some radical change (and the US never changes policy RADICALLY), we have begun a long slow decline out of First Place ... like the British Empire of an earlier century. We can beat our chests and claim whatever we want, but the larger economy supports the most growth and toys so the gap will only widen. Besides, Russia will only allow the US to get so close to China before they manipulate the media with THEIR bots. Motivated self interest at its best.

It is also one of the states that New Yorker's are fleeing to (like the CA to AZ/NV migration)

Also, Atlanta is the black homosexual San Francisco. Other big cities for homosexuals are Indianapolis, Chicago, and New York and I think Seattle. Chicago has a black lesbian mayor.
