#  Did Biden and Dems Weaponize Government as Much as Trump and the GOP?

THE DOCTOR IS IN - Most American adults don't give a rip about partisan squabbles...and want results that affect their daily lives. That said, they also don't like out and out corruption.

Former President Donald Trump was impeached for doing investigations to Joe Biden for Biden's Ukraine deals and potential government interference.

Should President Joe Biden now be impeached for any past or current political actions against Donald Trump?

Trump was accused and impeached for allowing or encouraging havoc in the Capitol Building on 1/6/2021.

Should Pelosi (who did NOT allow the 1/6/2021 commission to be truly bipartisan) and the Democratic Party be held to task, with impeachments, for allowing death, destruction and havoc in major American cities after the terrible police-caused death of George Floyd.

Trump was accused of inappropriate actions with the Department of Justice and foreign powers, and an independent counsel was appointed.

Should President Biden be accused of the same actions, and with an independent counsel appointed?

Donald Trump had his home raided because of classified documents being where they should not be. Attorney General Merrick Garland, who Trump denied a vote for his potential appointment to the Supreme Court, has taken major steps against Trump because of those documents being where they shouldn't be.

The same is happening to Joe Biden. Is Merrick Garland going to take the same actions against President Biden? Should an independent counsel be appointed yet again?

It's safe to say that most Americans are disgusted with this endless partisan/legal horseplay, and all sides look pretty awful.

Yet the mainstream media (major newspapers, AOL/Yahoo/MSN/USA Today/CNN) seem to only be taking one side to task, and only recently has social media been allowing some complaints and opinions to be published for public review.

So, in short, is Biden as guilty as Trump? Do neither of them have any business being in the White House?

And will this endless chicanery and fingerpointing be the new normal of Washington politics?
