    Bullshit, Biden never instructed anyone to investigate and much less ordered to prosecute any republicans.

    Both parties will say the other one is corrupt

    False equivalence.

      This is exactly why we’re in this mess in the first place

        No it’s not, he is not responsible for deciding who shall be investigated, and who goes to prison.
        The responsible parties are investigators and prosecutors, that delayed prosecuting Trump for years, despite a coup attempt.

            So… what?
            I think that’s a big so… nothing. Biden never interfered in any investigations which is tradition that the president stay out of.
            Trump is breaking every rule written and unwritten.

            You defending Trump with a bad whataboutism example that is an obvious false equivalence is disgusting.

            Yes, but then it was out of his hands.

            There is no evidence of Biden directing prosecutions, and not from a lack of trying. The media and the Republican led congress looked as hard as they possibly could, but the only evidence shows the exact opposite: Biden was privately pissed off at Garland for prosecuting his son and going easy on Trump. They were not working together.

            Trump is using the justice department the same way Nixon did, which, at the time, was appalling even to Republicans. We don’t want all of our future presidents to be Nixons.
