Summary
Merrick Garland’s failure to swiftly prosecute Trump for inciting the January 6th insurrection allowed Trump to run for president again in 2024.
Garland’s slow-walking of the investigation undermined the seriousness of Trump’s actions and normalized him as a Republican front-runner.
Garland’s inaction contributed to the current state of the republic, where Trump is poised to return to the White House.
Yeah, Biden was the exact wrong president for this era.
The US and indeed the world needed someone bold to take decisive and transformative action to right the ship.
Instead we got an ancient creature of the establishment rearranging the deck chairs and yelling at people to shut up about the icebergs.
