    It’s fucking embarrassing, honestly. I hope whomever is president next reverses all of the BS executive orders. Like, day 1. You could argue that there’s far more important things to be doing than changing the Gulf of Mexico back to being the Gulf of Mexico, and you’d be right, but doing it on day 1 (along with everything else - just write one executive order that undoes every EO from the prior admin) sends the (important) message that there was nothing of value done by the prior admin, and the legitimacy of the administration is not even being entertained for a moment.

      Some people will argue that reversing everything would set a precedent for future governments.

      Fuck those people.

      It has already been proven that the republicans have no intention of honoring previous decisions. There is no high road any longer. Everything must go.

        Yeah… “We can’t undo all of the unprecedented shit the previous admin did because it would set a precedent for future admins” is just about the stupidest argument I can think of. Tear it all down and start from scratch, clearly what we have isn’t working.

      day 1 should be a revocation of all his executive orders.

      day 2 should be applying some new ones. like Epstein Island being called pedoisland. and Maralago being renamed the Donald J Trump Library of pedophilia.

      day 3 should be a round up of all the assholes that have allowed this shitshow to continue, and summarily tried, charged, and publicly executed.

      No, rename it to the gulf of Barack Hussein Obama, just to troll him. Same with the Kennedy center. And the East Wing crater or whatever they’re pretending that’ll be.
