If I Were Newly-Elected President

As the newly-elected president of the grand ol' U. S. of A. I would tell the truth to friend and foe alike and, like it or not, Order all legal federal actions against former leaders dropped. I will proclaim the cherished values that make our country great, While issuing a directive religion and politics are forever separate, Order the I.R.S. to collect property taxes from all offending churches. I will forgive all future payments on college student loans, and Extend unemployment to the jobless--as a result of COVID-19. I will grant humane treatment to all international refugees. I will announce an extensive refurbishing infrastructure program, And increase the minimum wage to $15 per hour (phased in). I will call for a universal healthcare, single-payer system, Announce on Day One ending the unnecessary war in Afghanistan, Call my cabinet together and inform them of my no tolerance for grift. I will call Mr. Vladimir Putin and tell him no more meddling, period, I will make education through Community College tuition-free, I will make America more about her citizens and less about me. I will abolish the Department of Education; abolish the U.S.D.A., too, And erect on the White House lawn a children’s petting zoo! I will draft and extend an all-nation's nuclear non-proliferation treaty, then Make a list of all worthy eligible candidates for the U.S. Supreme Court, Sell my golf clubs and, lastly, take a good, long, well-deserved nap!
