5. Of course, these posts are just tongue in cheek, right? Because Joe won't, and shouldn't, do any of them.

It's not in his nature to flaunt the law. And most of the suggestions here would do exactly that. He would tarnish his own legacy. Plus, assuming Harris wins, he would be putting her in an impossibly bad position. She would have to decide whether to defend these actions in court, where she would almost certainly lose. Or she could not defend them. Either way, not a good start to an administration.

I'm not sure how fantasizing does any good, but since I'm guessing these posters aren't serious, I suppose its just a harmless waste of time.

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
