All this was to be expected once the corrupt Christofascist Supreme Court gave the president the powers of a king. Too bad Biden couldn't wrap his head around this as grandpa continues to live in a bipartisan fantasy world that doesn't exist. Those of us who love the concept of equal protection under the law never get the leaders we need to defend the actual constitution. The Republicans have pulled their inspiration from the way they use the Bible, picking and choosing those parts of the constitution they want and then making a right wing "interpretation" based on what god has spoken to them about, which of course supports what they want. We are totally screwed at this point. I suspect after his trip to kneel before our dear leader, Mark Zuckerberg will make it that criticism of the lying Trump regime will be removed as "against community standards."
It’s not just Biden. It’s the entire government infrastructure. Two out of three branches of government have been hijacked by fascism thanks to malevolence and disinformation. 250 years of a democracy surviving everything thrown at makes it hard to lose faith in our institutions at this point, especially for someone like Biden who has believed in them so deeply and fought so hard to preserve them. Admitting that the US democracy died in 2016, and taking the needed executive actions to steer us away from the fascist motherfuckers grabbing more power is a step too far for someone who has so intensely labored over strengthening our democracy. We need a rebellious faction willing to do what is needed to stand up to the fascists.
