    I’m very disappointed with Biden’s administration for not charging more people in Trump’s first term for the crimes they committed. They didn’t face any consequences the last time and will now be completely off the rails. Now we have a second Trump administration with most of the same people that now know they can get away with anything.

      The problem is that US democracy consists of voting for either a conservative party (Democrats) or a fascist party (Republicans).

      When the conservatives are in power they care most about preserving the appearance of legitimacy of institutions and they don’t do anything like arresting politicians or stuffing the supreme court even though it would strengthen democracy.

      Then the fascists get in and destroy everything anyway.
