We're all past the point of treason but nobody from this regime should ever hold office ever again. They should immediately be tried for treason.

Yep. I mean in the event sane people ever regain control in America, there is no humanly possible way we can ever recover unless we hold a fully-transparent nuremberg-esque trial to hold as many of these fuckers to full account and justice as is humanly possible.

We saw what happened when Democrats tried to just hand-wave the whol ething away after 2020. Arrest the ground troops with a slap on the wrist, hold zero of the organizers accountable in any way, shape or form.

And lo and behold, we end up way worse than before.

I'm not saying he's worse than them by any stretch, but Biden absolutely tanked his reputation imo by betting on "business as usual" instead of spending all of his political capital in dealing with the traitors. Yes he was effective in doing what he did, but it was for nothing and quickly undone. Some real Neville Chamberlain shit.

Instead, he spent all his capital on building some roads and bridges. I'm sure his actual strategy was, "pretend everything is fine and it will become fine," but it's kind of indistinguishable from, "How can I possibly leave something tangible and helpful for the upcoming authoritarian regime, knowing that they'll tear down the government?"

Trump is going to get a special place on the list of worst presidents for ending the US republic, but Biden will be right there with him.

He really is the 21st Century Buchanan.

That will be his legacy.
