    You are also partially responsible for not doing a god damn thing to prepare the government or the country for what was coming before you left. You just fucked off since the election and coasted into to the sunset while covering your own ass. I’m not saying he was the worst, but man, he could have done so much fucking better in the end.

      Don’t stop there. Let’s hear what you think he should have done so we can evaluate your argument on its merits instead of the strawman you’ve constructed.

        Well, just to name a few:

        • sack Garland after it became apparent that he was not fit for purpose. Better yet, he shouldn’t have even picked him
        • sack DeJoy (do not give me that bullshit about how “his hands were tied” - that’s demonstrably a matter of interpretation)
        • GOP wants to lean into the maximalist interpretation of executive power? Maliciously comply.
        • pack the court

        I can go on, at length, but I’m sure you’re starting to get the point.

          Garland did the job he was hired to do. He slow walked the investigation so biden could run against trump again.

        He should have ensured in the four years he had that Trump was prosecuted, found guilty, and sentenced to federal prison for his part in January 6th.

          Amazingly, yours is the only answer that backs up OPs original claim and you’re not the OP.

          You’re right it’s worse. “Fucked off since the election”. As in, it’s just absurd nonsense that ignores any of the good things Biden tried to do like wiping away student debt which was life changing for the people that had debt wiped away. Doesn’t mean Biden shouldn’t have done more, but my point is the comment is weak af and lacks substance.

        I’ve got one: Biden should’ve legalized DMT. It is a beautiful substance that the government is suppressing because they fear the good it offers.
