Trump vanity projects. Every single one of them. It will be very hard for me to vote for anyone who does not commit to that as a fundamental plank in their platform.
The ballroom has to go.
The Arc de Trump needs to be taken down.
The Kennedy center needs to be restored.
All that cheap gold spray-painted sh*t in the white house, that tacky, tasteless kitch needs to be ripped apart.
Every airport, train station, anything that is named after Trump between now and then need to revert to their old names.
All the coins and bills with his face on them need to be recalled and replaced with their proper versions.
And if they've started carving his face on Mt. Rushmore by that time (trust me, it's coming), whatever's been done up to that point needs to be dynamited. (I think the case can be made that that whole monument needs to be blown up, but that's a separate conversation)
Everything he has done to insert himself into the nation's landscape needs to be immediately expunged.
Democratic Party: I know you can't wait to go back to the safety of the kitchen table issues (a politician's version of talking about the weather) but this is serious. There is no possible healing for this nation, no chance to go forward until Trump's forced entry on this nation's artifacts is reversed 100%.
