you are a joke, and you know it. when repubs gets caught in mess you people reverse it back to Biden. Let's be real here, the repubs cheated just like the ex leader, who I voted for the first time. Now he is in gator infested water to his neck with no paddle to fight him out. good luck!

It will not happen, it takes about two years for the new admin to get the old admin crap straight.
