From Salon, “Unfortunately, Biden is living up to every stereotype of the quisling Democrat and taking this advice seriously. Reports suggest that in the interest of national ‘unity,’ Biden is discouraging the idea of prosecuting Trump. … This pattern — Republicans screw everything up and are allowed to get away with it in the name of ‘unity,’ and take that as permission to go even further the next time — has been playing out since Richard Nixon first snagged his post-Watergate pardon. … Of course not. And that’s the problem we’re facing. The ‘unity’ isn’t unity at all. It’s a fake unity in which one side — the side that did not cause the damage wrought by Trump or Bush or Reagan or Nixon — does all the work, while the other side keeps looking for new opportunities to cause trouble. If anything, conservatives grows ever bolder in their corruption, realizing they will never face consequences for their actions, and in fact can count on the left to clean up all their messes for them.”
The article goes on to prove the point by quoting Jonathan Mahler, “When President George H.W. Bush pardoned six Reagan White House officials who were involved in the Iran-contra affair, he warned of ‘a profoundly troubling development in the political and legal climate of our country: the criminalization of policy differences.’ Bush was sparing members of his own party. President Obama created what is perhaps an even more relevant precedent for Biden by choosing not to prosecute members of the George W. Bush administration who had authorized the unlawful torture of detainees; his nominee for attorney general, Eric Holder, used the very same phrase — the criminalization of policy differences — when the issue came up during a 2009 congressional hearing.”
Well-versed arguments like the above infuriate me all over again, and right on cue, Biden has been signaling his pusillanimous intentions to place unity over accountability. As usual, dumbass Democrats can’t chew gum and walk at the same time. Moreover, dumbass Democrats are too short-sighted to understand that another RepubliKKKlan administration that goes unpunished only encourages and emboldens the next criminal RepubliKKKlan administration and strengthens the resistance of the RepubliKKKlan Senate and soon to be RepubliKKKlan House (in two years). Whatever! I give up! Democrats come into office to clean up the f***ing mess left behind by RepubliKKKlans only to have voters kick them out of office once they put the economy back on track because you know — the RepubliKKKlans are “good for the economy,” nevermind that’s always Democrats that have to fix things. Welcome to stupid America! And I thought I would have little to write about with a traitor trump loss. The stupid is endless and everywhere! Democrats are weak, and that’s why they may have won the presidency but lost everywhere else — at the federal, state, and local levels. It never f***ing fails. Never! One step forward, two steps back.
