Sure they did, it's the same as the current term.

1) Undo anything Obama did
2) Pack the courts with marginally qualified political operatives
3) Undermine global alliances
4) Give GOP special interest groups the keys to dad's car
5) Set day to day priorities based on Fox and Friends

That's mostly a good thing. And Biden and the Dems would do the same with anything Trump and the Repubs did.


2) Pack the courts with marginally qualified political operatives

"Pack the courts" is a term of art meaning to add more Justices. There is no Repub policy to pack the courts. And you're obviously too ignorant and unqualified to decide what is "marginally qualified." And "operative" is a deliberately pejorative characterization. If you mean appoint Justices that politically align with party ideology, both parties do that. And if you mean by an "operative" someone who does not think he is constrained by the Constitution, then the Dems are the guilty party.

3) Undermine global alliances

Trump has strengthened several global alliances and has not "undermined" any.

4) Give GOP special interest groups the keys to dad's car

Both parties bend to special interests. If you think that the Dems don't, then you're stupid or lying to yourself.

5) Set day to day priorities based on Fox and Friends

Number five is as stupid as saying that the Dems set their priorities based on Rachel Maddow.
