Things Joe needs to do before he leaves office [View all]

Some of these he wont do, because he is an honorable man, but here's my list of "To Dos"
He needs to do them after the election as not to give the cult any extra ammo.

1) Hard or maybe impossible without help from Congress, but expand the SCOTUS. Maybe via executive order?

2) Make cannabis federally legal. Again, maybe via executive order.

3) Sounds like the case might get thrown out, but grant Hunter a pardon just for the fact it would cause the cultists heads to explode. This is one I doubt he would do, but oh my would it be fun.

4) Implement some form of sane, comprehensive gun control via EO again.

I'm sure some cant be done without legislation, but one can dream. What's on your list?

Of course, these posts are just tongue in cheek, right? Because Joe won't, and shouldn't, do any of them. onenote Jul 2024 #5
He has every right to do so claudette Jul 2024 #11
Not lawfully. Executive orders are overturned by the courts all the time. onenote Jul 2024 #13
He 100% needs to pardon his son. I'll actually be sad if he doesn't do this before he leaves office. lark Jul 2024 #7
He has said he won't. And therefore you can expect to be sad. onenote Jul 2024 #14
I'm hoping he changes his mind. lark Jul 2024 #19
I don't know what he/they can do in the short term, but the cost of consumer goods is a priority for most people. OneGrassRoot Jul 2024 #8
Agree, even though wages are up, that's been kind of random. lees1975 Jul 2024 #17
Loosen restrictions on Ukraine military aid. Tommy Carcetti Jul 2024 #12
I just wish he would have gone ahead and reformed the Supreme Court while he had a majority in both Houses. lees1975 Jul 2024 #15
Unfortunately you are probably right Squidly Jul 2024 #20
