Society needs change to stay vibrant and evolve; both JFK and TR embraced and effected change, to their credit.


Trump effected change, I just wouldn't call it a positive change.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent.

But you don't seem to give Trump any credit for the changes he made. You applauded as Biden reversed all Trump's changes. So it is not really change you embrace it is only the changes that you want that you are in favour of. That is no different than anyone else in the world. If it is a change you want it is morally right, if you don't like it the change it is morally wrong.

History will be a better judge as to the significance of any of Trump's attempts to change things here.

No doubt they'll start with January 6th.

note: society usually benefits from positive, not negative change.

It is not supposed to change because a POTUS decides we need to "transform" it. Well, if you like the culture of places like the USSR where change is dictated top down maybe.

I have a coworker who lives right on Tampa Bay. I’m legitimately worried she’s going to lose her house in this storm.

That hurricane was shocking in its destruction
The hurricanes are only getting worse with climate change.
Direct hit on Tampa would be devastating
Lots of mobile homes, lots of old construction.
The entire Pinnelas County could be under water
Frightening
The water has no place to go
The land simply can't absorb it
That's why nobody has basements

He deserves a heartfelt thank you from the migrants he flew FREE OF CHARGE away from the potential devastation. If I could I would nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize! The Biden’s and Newsoms of the world wanted to keep them in that danger zone!

You do realize they were sent from Texas, right?
