Congress makes the laws and passes the budget. They actually control the agenda, not the president, although the president will request legislation and use his political capital to try to get what he wants. We have two categories of serious problems. One is a national emergency which is Trump, Barr, McConnell, and Trump's cabal of crooks and criminals. The other is the many problems that Bernie and Liz have been pointing to, health care, student debt, lack of wealth distribution, climate change, corporate and oligarch control of government, etc., etc., etc.

Because of the national emergency, I suggest voting for the normalcy guy who is most acceptable to so-called moderates, then pushing like hell for congress to start solving those problems.

Elect lots of democrats to congress.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
