    Tear it all down, and make Trump pay for the original destruction and construction, and the demolition and reconstruction, and use only the best materials.

    Then pass a law that nothing can be named after Trump, with a single exception: Sewage Treatment Facilities. Then the people who live in the area can say “Hey, the Trump smells particularly smelly today,” and “Yes, the Trump is even stinkier than usual.”

      Yes! Confiscate the many billions that he and his family and minions have stolen from the people. Take it back to repair the damage to the infrastructure and reimburse taxpayers.

      The country won’t be able to do this because, as strange as it is, 33% of it is literally in a cult that worships the man. Only with the true and full will of the country behind you could you hope to do what needs to be done: full asset seizure and trial for crimes and treason and whatever proper associated punishment follows.

      But you can’t do it, because he fully controls 1 out of every 3 people you see on the street in America. While that’s far from a majority, it’s enough to make a proper accounting impracticable. 33% of the country would be going feraljak about the government being weaponized.

      But even beyond him, there’s something else that desperately needs doing and that’s an overhaul of the Constitution. The document was fantastic for 1787. It is woefully inadequate to run the modern United States. Its biggest shortcoming, ironically, is the absolute inability of government to properly and deftly respond to the very success that it’s principles have brought to it.

      None of it’s going to get done until everybody is so miserable that they no longer have anything tribal on their stupid, small minds. There’s going to have to be real pain, like starvation and suffering going on before real change is going to be able to be effected because people are still fat and happy enough to sit around and guffaw while Trump owns the libs, even as the cost of everything around them doubles.
