The first two years if not the whole four of an administration are going to be spent focusing on the damage this administration has done to every aspect of government. Literally every agency will have to be rebuilt and structured as they try to get back to a normal functioning status. Literally every agency is going to be in disarray as a new administration that has access to documents and information on how the agencies were being run comes to light..

And before jumping to the donald's defense, keep in mind that every agency has been headed by people who are against the agencies they are put in charge of. Agency heads have been chosen by a president who has brought the lowest levels of actual experience and expertise to agencies that take seasoned and experienced people with a lifetime of large organization administration sk**ls. Agency heads have been chosen because they are against the agency they are in charge of, it was literally their job to implement their destruction if not elimination entirely. Agencies have been defunded, their best people fired or resigning in disgust of an incompetent management that didn't want them to do their jobs.

The incoming administration will be inundated with reports of corruption and crimes that need to addressed by federal prosecutors, many of the trump state and federal prosecutors will need to be replaced, far more than is typical.

But here is the benefit of running on fixing the mess trump created, it gives dems a chance to air specific things trump has screwed up by discussing what needs to be done to fix it.

Forget universal healthcare, the fight will be keeping the ACA and tuning it up over five to ten years heading it toward more and more coverage. Forget green new deals, just evolve energy the right direction, it takes decades. Run on rejecting the worst of the unqualified judges McConnell has jammed through, not all, just the most glaringly bad according to the ABA.

To hell with changing the world in one term, just work on righting this sinking ship.

The only people running will your lying libs on a pole covered in tar.

Can you list the damage?

I did, every agency has been gutted of it's best people and missions. Regulations have been mangled such as clean water. Why does that even make any sense to tell corporations that it's okay if they pollute, they were not being crippled by not being able to pollute rivers.

Of course you missed the memo, the intelligence agencies were and still are infested with lawbreakers.

For you Californians, that means the swamp creatures.

Geeee that sounds just like the Obama administration to me not Trumps but you should know how all this works since you worship at the alter of Obama.

If Democrats could run against Trump's record they would not have to result to a bogus impeachment.

Yes, what a mess. Lowest unemployment in living memory, healthiest economy in living memory, lower taxes for the middle class, better, more competitive international trade agreements for American companies, a stronger military, a SCOTUS that follows the Constitution rather than 🎶feelings...🎵, ditto for record appointments to the federal bench, common sense prison reforms, better healthcare options for veterans, serious efforts to lower prescription drug prices that look like they will bear fruit, even if it doesn't happen until the Dems are again the House minority, promises finally kept to our Israeli allies, etc...

What you should have titled your post is "Things the Democrats Want to Return to the Mess They Were Before Trump Fixed Them."

Woody, you can refer to "the sinking ship" all you want but real, intelligent v**ers are going to be looking at the jobs reports, the DOW, the unemployment figures, their own bank accounts and paychecks and dozens of other gauges and they are not going to be crying over bureaucratic problems that shouldn't have been here in the first place. If you want to talk about the real sinking ship, you need to be looking at the Democrat party. They are about to go down for the third time. Why don't you stop trying to convince people that the big problem is not the big problem. C*****e c****e my fanny!

You are right about the sinking ship! It is over for the Democrats If you were smart, you would be switching parties too.

Oh, you mean like Comey, Sessons, Bolton? I doubt that even you could not defend those Parasites. Clean water was not gutted, one exemption was added, ditches. No major water ways, lakes, or streams were affected. And the date for comments has yet to close. Until those comments are received and reviewed, no changes to the constricting stranglehold Obama placed on states can not take place.

What else do you consider "the mess?"

American Vet

What you mean is that President Trump has made an excellent effort to attempt to 'drain the Swamp'. The agencies don't need to be 'rebuilt'; determination needs to be made if: **it is a necessary agency (and that is the big one). **Is it efficient **Creful examination of it's function and limits on it's power/authority.

MR Mister Loc: Washington DC

Fool, no one is polluting, America has the cleanest air and water in all of the industrialist nations.
Your anti-America leaders passed laws that cause you to lose your job, and raise your electric bills,
drive big business to move to China, is that the goal you want? If your job is gone along with 200 million others there will be no taxes, and therefore not welfare or food stamps and you will burn wood to stay warm
when 200 million people start cutting down trees how long will that last? Can you spell Easter Island?
