There won't be a President Biden. Donald Trump will announce that a vaccine has been miraculously discovered one week before the election and ride that wave to victory in November.

After 5 years of his schtick, who on earth would believe him if he said they'd discovered a vaccine?

Nobody who wasn't already voting for him.

We don't need no stinkin' Truth and Reconciliation.  We have historians and journalists who do that.

Terrible precedent to pursue criminal charges after he's out of office.  We would have never ending tit for tat.
Korea has prosecuted like half of their presidents, and they were mostly deserved from what IIRC. Prosecuting the powerful for their crimes is good for democracy.

Biden should seal himself inside a Space Marine Dreadnought and wreak a terrible vengeance upon Trump and the Trump towers til they are destroyed and their monuments are nothing but ashes.

Yes.

You shouldn't be so quick to agree.  An option involving nuclear power or lesbian sex hasn't been presented yet.

I don't think Biden and Trump should have lesbian sex.

I think it's more like 3, and one of those wasn't elected.

And IIRC Park Gyeun Hi was charged after she had been impeached while in office.

I agree.  I think it would make a powerful statement if we send Trump to prison (provided he is convicted of a crime, of course).
