GOP Trumpers: Would You Support The Following Scenario?

Trump has shredded our political process, but he won't be president forever. Would you support the following scenario which follows Trump's current actions in a subsequent administration?

Suppose Trump loses the 2020 election, and both the House and the Senate become Democratic as well. The new president, Joe Biden, is inaugurated in January 2020, and immediately begins to reverse the vast majority of Trump's Executive Orders. With a Democratic Senate, the new president begins to stuff the courts with liberal judges. Two Supreme Court Justices (Breyer and Ginsburg) resign and are replaced by liberal judges in their 40s. The new president's cabinet members are all left of center, and are all confirmed by the Democratic Senate. Biden decides to use his son, Hunter, to be his closest aide, and since he isn't being paid, he doesn't have to go through Senate confirmation. Biden also selects Hillary and Bill Clinton, and Obama, as unpaid advisors who also do not go through the Senate confirmation process. All four are dispatched to conduct secret foreign policy around the world, looking for dirt on Trump and key Republicans from foreign governments, in return for US foreign aid. The more criminal acts identified, the greater the aid. The new Secretary of State, Eric Holder, is confirmed along strict party lines, as are the remaining cabinet members. Biden's big initiative, gun control, is underfunded by Congress, so he unilaterally decides to take $5 billion in military spending and divert it to gun control. The Justice Department, under the direction of Attorney General Elizabeth Warren, spends its time supporting Biden and acting as his personal attorney to shield him from scrutiny, while conducting criminal investigations on Jim Jordan, Mark Gaetz, Devin Nunes, Mitch McConnell, Kevin McCarthy, and others. The majority of them are charged with crimes and convicted, after resigning in disgrace. Trump is arrested, removed from Trump Tower in handcuffs, and tried and convicted by the Southern District of New York. He serves time in Attica for multiple felonies, and is denied access to Twitter.

Trump has done similar things during his administration that you have approved of. Do you support the same things being done in future administrations run by Democrats?

A good start, of course selling off all Trumps assets and confiscating the funds to covering money laundering and tax evasion wont touch the foreign debt.. But I cant blame trump for that. Now, about that 50% income tax on the rich....

@whowasthatmaskedman It took generations to reduce the top tax rate from 90% in the 1950s to the current rate of 37%, but hopefully that process can be arrested and reversed in time to a reasonable rate.

@windinhishair Its a complex argument for another day. But you have to start someplace.

@whowasthatmaskedman Indeed. And people should note that the nation flourished with a strong middle class when the top marginal rate ranged from 50% to 90%.

@windinhishair How many days a week should an American work to fund the government?

@Strictgram Depends on your income and your tax bracket. It will very for each individual, just as benefits will vary for each individual. The nation has been strongest when it had the biggest middle class and disposable income. The US has pushed more of the income to the top 1 or 2%, and the nation has suffered as a result, along with average people.
