Comment on Can we have a boring and uneventful week for a change?
TropicalDingdong@lemmy.world 1 day agoIt was not Biden’s job to prosecute his political opponent,
His “political opponent” attempted to overthrow the elected government of the United States, while sitting in the office of the president. What Trump did, treason isn’t even a strong enough word for.
The administrative branch, through the United States attorney general, decides which crimes or laws it pursues in applying and which ones it doesn’t. It is 100% the job of the administrative branch, The Presidency, to prosecute a former government official, especially of the outgoing administration, for treason.
And not one fucking iota of those, allegedly, “good things” Biden did matters now: Because Biden failed in his duty to prosecute Trump. And honestly, I’ll leave it for others to nitpick the absolute absurdity being extolled in that list you’ve come up with. The one that caught my eye at a glance is the bit about rail workers.
Fuck Biden. Worst president of the past 100 years (with one exception) and the man who sealed the fate on the downfall of the republic.

1 exception? Just one?

I’m on the fence if its even hyperbole. For all the faults of all the presidents of the past hundred years, none of them directly contributed to the downfall of the republic in the way Biden has. Its hard to understand historicity in real time. We really don’t know whats going to necessarily get remembered or how.
Like, genuinely, who is worse? The guy who says “I’m going to burn the building down” or the one who, in a position of power to stop them, makes the conscious decision not to? Trump has never not said exactly what they are going to do. They are the quiet part-out-loud manifest. And Biden chose to believe something different. They had all the power to simply arrest Trump on day 1 of their office. Put him behind bars on that day, begin the investigation. Take it seriously, like Brazil has, like South Korea did. Biden
McKinley is one of the biggest pieces of shit that ever lived. I’ll live with PTSD forever because of the decisions of Bush. Trump. Well. Of course.
But Trump could have been stopped. We didn’t need to have him as President again. Trump was polling like shit. He was deeply unpopular, even though he won. Trump is a consequence of the decisions and the decision making framework of Biden and Democratic leadership.

That guy is super-duper racist and hates Obama. He’s cool with Trump, though.

Excuse me are you accusing me of racism?
