    I’d rather hear what he’s going to do and how he’s going to do it than be told shit we already know.

      Look to the Democratic Party platform if you want to know what he’ll aspire to. What he can actually do will be constrained by the Congress we elect and by the courts

        Hasn’t been restrained by Congress when he bypasses it to fund a genocide but for anything else suddenly he has zero power

          The President has a bunch of explicit power around military decisions.

          That’s not the same as being able to just go do anything.

          Yeah because Republicans wanted that. Do you not understand civics? They don’t want anything else that actually helps America

      That’s the entire platform, ‘we are not trump, although most of our policies mirror Trump, we are not him.’. And are shocked that’s not enough for voters.
