Biden is being a gentleman doing what is expected of him and accepting that the public elected a sack of shit who didn't even show up for Biden's inauguration and tried to seize the government. The point is, the public did elect the sack of shit this time, and Biden respects that. He's doing his job, no matter how hard he's gonna have to wash that hand.
His job is to protect the country and constitution. He's derelict of his duty.
Even if the SC hadn't given him a blank check to do whatever he wanted, his patriotic duty is to eliminate threats, of which Trump and friends are.
Now explain why Trump using violence to overthrow an election is an attempted coup, but Biden doing it is protecting the constitution.
I am all for Trump getting his shit pushed in and I wish him nothing but the worst, but don't pretend that your double standard is somehow a righteous defense of the Constitution.
