  • That’s not how the Constitution and our legal system is supposed to work. The DOJ and FBI are supposed to be independent and enforce the law in a non-partisan manner and a POTUS is not supposed to be able to tell them who to arrest or give the appearance of indicating who they should arrest. Trump of course doesn’t respect any of that, but Biden was doing it the way it’s supposed to be and has always been done, and expecting law enforcement agencies to do the investigations and make any arrests (they actually did arrest many people, but not the ringleader). Had Biden ordered trump’s arrest all hell would have broken loose socially and courts would have ordered his release.

    So in reality Biden’s “biggest, most enduring mistake” was putting milquetoast Merrick Garland in charge of the DOJ. Garland was a namby-pamby little wimp who was so afraid of the appearance of partisanship that he piddled around and did nothing. The country waited around (because we had no power not to) saying hopefully, “he’s being very thorough so the case is sure to hold up in court” but in reality he was a useless piece of crap who didn’t do his job.
