4. For six months, he remains the most powerful person on Earth. With no fucks left to give.

I know he has ethics that prevent him from weaponizing the federal government the way Trump is promising to. That's too bad, 'cuz as the head of the Executive Branch, he has access to everything that the FBI, CIA, and other alphabet agencies have on Trump and the Republicans. It'd be a shame if any of that were to leak. Just sayin'.

And as Trump has made abundantly clear, that data belongs to the President.

Perhaps Biden might be inclined to declassify a few things.

Strategic declassification of some things might be sufficient.

14. Have a morning fireside chat daily to rally the voters. Set the truth straight; correct all the media misinformation

about everything - all the lies the rethugs tell and all the suffering caused by their tactics. I think his chats should include subtitles to ensure people take in every word he says.

Paint a vivid picture of the contrast between what the Dems offer: freedom

versus

what chump and his project 2025 offer: oppression; invasion of privacy; deprivation of rights; lack of a safety net -- the end of Social Security and Medicare as we know it; end of good relations & trust with our Allies; collapse of society and climate; mass chaos and mayhem
