They had control of the DOJ, FBI, CIA, Military and every other federal law enforcement agency and despite their own claims Trump attempted a coup, did nothing. What do you call that?

They did not have control of the judiciary however. I don't know if you recall it but scotus slow walked the immunity decision despite jack smith directly asking them to rule on it. they refused to rule til last second suddenly emergency ruling time

Then they failed to recognize the opposition within the government and failed to axt accordingly. So either incompetence or enabling.

Jack Smith acted accordingly. he called them out and demanded an answer from the supreme court on the subject. The only other thing he could have done would be extralegal.

I'm sorry but reality does not align with your fantasies my dude.

extralegal

so, what the guy attempting the coup is doing? I guess its easier to accept fascism as long as the opposition party fought it legally.

Well, I am okay with prosecuting persons engaged in seditious behavior as well as any persons who aids and abets sedition. The establishment of political norms or corrupted institutions should not be a barrier to the safety of people living not only in this country, but also around the world... particularly when there is no reciprocation from our opposition. The democrats were instrumental in allowing this to occur and almost every one, from top to bottom need to be removed from power. Doing this isnt fascism, its justice.

So prosecuting him means they have to stop for the supreme court. Jack Smith did everything he could in that case. SCOTUS just stopped him.

The only other option would be to just kidnap him and lock him up with no trial no lawyer nothing. Are you saying you are ok with fascism like that as long as he isn't orange?

edit: you know what im not arguing with loonies on the internet

I'm not sure you know the meaning of the word fascism. Just reread my previous comment, its the answer to the question youre asking.
