Re: U.S. politics thread and Joe Biden-the Ronan O'Gara of U.S. Presidents

America nearly ripped itself apart while cadet Bonespurs was cosplaying President. Life was better for the Nazis, though, who were emboldened to crawl out from under their rocks when their guy was in the White House. And who stirred that up? ANTIFA...amirite? Or, was it the FBI?
