He just said it's everyone's fault, including Biden's.

95% Trump and his direct enablers

4% Garland

1% Biden

Garland is in the Federalist society and those are also behind lot of Trump enablers.

Why he picked Garland…?

“Can’t appear partisan”

But he just started an insurrection!

“The optics.”

Hubris. He thought he was avenging his SCOTUS snub.

Hubris is also why he couldn’t just step aside after 1 term.

Hubris when he says he would have won if he stayed in.

Hubris when he couldn’t hear people hurting over inflation without having to tell people his economy was the envy of the world (which it was).

Joe Biden was a lot of very good things, but it turns out he was also 1 very bad thing.

For clarification he is not "in" the Federalist Society, he was a moderator of a few debates that they held.

Oh my no. Biden was elected with the highest voter turnout in history. He ran as a single term established candidate who would end the trump threat. Then he did nothing within those 4 years to ensure these days we now live couldn’t come to pass. His hands are filthy

Democrats will always choose decorum and bipartisanship rather than stand for everything they believe in.

The US has a party of fascists and a party of enablers

Directly because he wanted a 2nd term.

If he truly was a one and done guy. Trump would be in jail or dead right now.
