You didn't have an incoming President who stated publicly that he was seeking revenge and retribution. I personally don't think Biden should have preemptively pardoned his entire family, but I understand why he did.

No thought was given to the specific charges the J6 criminals were found guilty of, someone who assaulted a police officer was granted the same clemency as someone who was guilty of disturbing the peace. Trump saw this as merely an "F You" to those who don't kiss his a**.

Trump only backs the Blue when it serves his own demented purposes.
