In the face of clear evidence of a coup, why in the world are we not indicting 45 and accomplices?

65. It isn't about being "too nice".

It is about access to media. It is about what the message is. It is about many things. Like I said, Democrats have to balance respect for the rules and traditions of governance because that is what we are fighting for. Republicans are only fighting for power and will try to get it however they can. They realize that their message does not resonate with most people so they are not interested in democracy.

If Democrats start dismantling democracy to save democracy, then democracy will not exist to "save". It really sucks to be in that position but think about the analogy in the Batman movie where Alfred says, "Some people just want to watch the world burn". Republicans don't care if it burns. We do, so we cannot "fight fire with fire". The FBI and DOJ are autonomous agencies within the Administration. Biden and Congress can suggest, but they cannot order them to investigate their political opposition.
