24. DEFINITELY! We can't afford to "just move on" from this loathsome time.

We can’t afford the “we need to move forward and not look back” stuff.

That’s like just having the house painted without doing anything to clean or otherwise prepare the surface before you paint it. Just paint over the cracks and the bugs and the dirt and the cobwebs and the rust and the deterioration and the cracks and the leaves that are all crumbled up in the corners.

We have to face this and CLEAN HOUSE. Identify, round up, and take out all the garbage - straight to prosecution, conviction, and imprisonment.

And btw, that’s the trump way. Just paint over it and nobody will notice. And then it’ll be somebody else’s problem.
