As Biden’s presidency drew to a close, his efforts to restore America’s political norms seemed almost comical, particularly when he engaged in a ceremonial tea with Trump. His steadfast commitment to the peaceful transfer of power, even toward someone he deemed a fascist threat to American democracy, left many of his supporters bewildered. Trump’s burgeoning resentment seems to have reached a crescendo in his interview with Hannity, where he threatened criminal prosecution against Biden. Biden’s unconditional pardons to his family seem to havebackfired, becoming a target for Trump’s attack. Trump’s ideological purge of Biden’s team appears to be just the beginning of a revenge tour.
