    Okay, so we do hold people in positions of power accountable, so Biden should have locked up the coup leaders on day one. As we have unfortunately seen, the President can act despite objections from the people.

      Biden locking up the coup leaders on day one without the support of voters would be the move of a dictator and would require Biden to pull off a coup first because the president otherwise doesn’t have the ability to do what you are suggesting.

      Trump is only able to get away with his crimes because of the support he has from voters, billionares, Russia, the GOP and all the corrupt judges and Judicial roles he has filled with loyalist (just to name a few examples).

      Biden never had that kind of support.
