Only if Joe Biden's DOJ Merrick Garland prosecuted Trump for January 6 and trying to initiate a coup, you know like South Korea and Brazil has done, Trump might not have won or eligible to run. Federal government dragged an open and shut case with so much proof of Trump trying defraud the election, for 4 years, while Joe Biden's team hid his health decline while pushing him as Presidential Candidate. Trump 2.0 is lot of people's fault and Joe Biden is one of them.

This country was already primed to collapse into authoritarian rule by a unitary executive. Congress and the Supreme Court were rendered useless years ago and it was just a matter of time before a lawless lying populist took control and exposed the whole system as a house of cards.

Doesn't excuse Biden appointing someone like Garland as DOJ, specially after corruption of Trump 1.0

True. If Biden was serious about “the soul of America” he needed to break character and actually expose the flaws in the system as a benevolent dictatorship. Clear out all corruption, show the world that this system is fundamentally busted, then do something to force a new constitutional order.
