If I was Biden...

I'd exercise the kingly powers the Supreme Court bestowed upon me — immunity for official acts — and declare a state of emergency.

Then, on day one of my new monarchy:

1. Pardon EVERYONE on Trump's enemies list, including every journalist and news outlet who has ever criticized him, every Democrat, independent, and "never-Trumper" Republican in America who voted against him, and all undocumented immigrants everywhere. (Basically, pardon half of the country.)

2. Decree the First Amendment null and void. Shut down Fox "News" and other right-wing fake news organizations that constantly lie to the American people as their primary business plan.

3. Arrest, jail, and deport, or publicly hang on the steps of the Capitol (my wet dream) the actual "enemies within," including Trump, his entire family, his traitorous cabinet nominees, Elon Musk, Rupert Murdock, everyone at Fox "News," every puss-filled perpetrator of filthy lies wherever they happen to fester and rot, be it on TV, radio, or the internet, and every local, state, and federal groveling Republican politician across the nation dumb enough to support Trump.

4. Declare that Trump and the Republicans, with Russia's help, stole the 2024 election, refuse to leave the White House, and incite a mob of angry Democrats to surround the Capitol on January 6th and prevent the certification of votes. (What's good for the goose is good for the gander.)

5. Oh yeah, strip billionaires and any other greedy bastard worth over, say, 50 million of their wealth and power and deport them, too.

Alas, I am not Biden. (Aren't you lucky!😁)

He's one of those gutless wonders who actually believes in democratic principles and the rule of law, unlike his orange predecessor and successor. How quaint.

Good ideas, but just as autocratic, and likely to get out of hand, as Trump's.
