(1,399 posts)When we gain a bare majority in both chambers of Congress and the presidency, the first thing we do is to change the rules to eliminate the filibuster entirely and all other checks (blue slips, etc.) on the power of the majority.
Then we go back and systematically reinstate every regulation, every national monument boundary, every Obama executive order, etc. AS LEGISLATION. It took less than a year to destroy an administrative and regulatory framework that it will take decades to recreate through the regulatory process. Re-instituting them as laws returns us to pre-Trump basically overnight AND in order to get rid of them again, Republicans will have to regain control of everything and repeal them.
Oh, yes, and then we pack the courts with Judges like Goodwin Liu, not Merrick Garland.
