    How about the fact that Biden should have had all the MAGA leadership rounded up the moment he was inaugurated, and sent them all to Guantanamo for extensive interrogation. There we would have discovered the ongoing stolen documents treason, and much more. The Biden administration would have controlled the narrative, and charged and prosecuted the traitors, and starved them of the media attention that they so pathetically crave.

    Instead, he appointed the most feckless Republican in existence to be his AG, and lead the prosecution of Trump and his henchmen, who then proceeded to dither and slow walk the cases, giving MAGA a two year head start on running out the clock, which they eventually did, aided by the mind-boggling negligence of the Biden administration.

    Because of the Biden Administrations weakness, we may be stuck with this psychotic government, at least until it collapses under its own virtuosic incompetence.

    That’s one.

      So what you’re saying, is that you wanted Joe Biden to do the exact same thing Trump is trying to do to the democrats now, is that correct? You wanted Biden to break the law and direct his justice department to prosecute his political enemies. Is that right?

      Do you understand why exactly it’s important for the justice department to be independent of the president? Why do you think it’s such a big deal when Trump directed Pam Bondi to arrest his political enemies with a fucking tweet, then a week later Letitia James and James Comey get indicted? You want the democrats to do that shit too? So you’re fine being ruled by a tyrant as long as that tyrant arrests YOUR political enemies, right?

      Because of the Biden Administrations weaknes

      TIL a president following the law is “weakness”

        So what you’re saying, is that you wanted Joe Biden to do the exact same thing Trump is trying to do to the democrats now, is that correct?

        Now listen to me very carefully because I have two things to say to this.

        1. I will not tolerate anyone “quoting” me by opening with “so what you are saying…” followed by an outright lie. That is a cheap shot with a shallow argument. I said what I said, not what you said I said, based on the worst interpretation of my actual words possible.

        2. Joe Biden took office only days after Donald Trump openly announced, planned, organized, promoted, rallied, and LAUNCHED a violent Insurrection with the primary objective to destroy a Constitutionally mandated ceremony to transfer power, and claim Dictator-For-Life.

        The secondary objective was to kill the disloyal Vice President, and probably his family, and more. The chatter on all the Conservative media, long before and during the Insurrection, was hunger for vicious, violent retribution on their most despised enemies, like Pelosi, AOC, and others, mostly women. Photos of insurrectionists with handfuls of handcuffs on their belts, illustrate their intentions to take hostages.

        And there was the ferocious attack by the mob, on the police that they purported to support the day before, and they claimed to support the next day, but on that day, they were trying to kill every last one of them. Watch the body cam footage of those cops in the tunnel, and imagine the feeling of those cops, fighting with everything they’ve got to defend the building, while trying to stay alive, and looking out on what must have looked like an endless wave of faces twisted in mob insanity. They had to have thought they would die that day, and several committed suicide within days of the battle.

        The only thing that finally saved America was that the Traitors finally got hungry, and decided to go back to the local bars and drink to their victory.

        When Biden took office, he was taking it from the biggest TRAITOR in American history, probably bigger than all other American traitors COMBINED, and that was before we knew about the False Electors Conspiracy, and the Stolen Classified Documents Scheme.

        It would have been fully within his Constitutional rights and RESPONSIBILITIES to declare Donald Trump, and every single person who took any part in the conspiracy to overthrow our government as extreme National Security Threats to this nation, because THEY WERE, and still are.

        The fact that we are in the situation we are in today, only proves how much of a national security threat they truly were, and only reinforces why the Biden should have acted boldly and decisively back then.

        Biden, and hopefully the next Democratic president, would be arresting Trump and his henchmen because of their CRIMES against this country and it’s citizens - a long list that we ALL know about. He is not being punished for his ignorant policies, except where they are used to commit more crimes.

        But Trump is using the government’s resources to settle personal, political scores, as well as to cover up his crimes by trying to silence the prosecutors who have had the courage to stand up to him.

        Using the judicial system to target the crimes of the biggest national security threat in our country, is not the same as punishing one’s personal enemies. If Trump has actual crimes to pin on his enemies, then he is welcome to charge them, but so far, the courts have rejected EVERY one of his vexatious lawsuits, because they are ludicrous.

        So here is what I am saying:

        Trump needs to account for his many CRIMINAL violations, and be punished for them. It’s as simple as that.
