Ight cool, Trump still raped and trafficked children for years and deserves nothing but the inside of a concrete box

Yep. Don't forget the obvious bribe he got from some marijuana company to reclassify it.

I love that one of his orders boils down to "Finish what Biden started."

That’s so surprising and counter-intuitive, he must have some other reason to have done this; something that benefits him personally.

Usually his MO is to reverse Biden’s actions out of spite, so either he was unaware of Biden’s actions on this or someone paid him a bunch of money.
