I'm Australian and an outside observer to all this nonsense. Its pretty damn obvious all of the Hunter Biden & Joe Biden nonsense is simply a distraction from just how close this mess cam to ending democracy in America. I actually went to college in American. I did engineering but a bunch of friends were pre-law and they used to drag me into all sorts of their discussions. I had studied Orwell in high school (Animal Farm & 1984) so I used to always put forward that ANY DEMOCRACY could fall into a totalitarian dictatorship (Left or Right) because that was what Orwell warned about. People think Orwell was only about what happened in Russia and that's not true. His message was a warning against ANYFORM of absolute dictatorship. My friends used to argue that such a thing was IMPOSSIBLE in America because the US Constitution had too many checks and balances to get around. I am stunned at what's happening now because that system of checks and balances has failed. At the moment I put the blame squarely on 2 people in particular - Mitch McConnell and Merrick Garland. McConnell could have slapped down Trump at the FIRST impeachment the same way they muzzled Clinton with a "We aren't throwing you out but you are now going to behave and do your job." McConnell could have at the SECOND impeachment simply said "No this is too much. Get out and stay out!" Garland should have seen the failure of McConnell and done the right thing by simply charging Trump the moment there was sufficient evidence and there was enough. The fact he put his Institutionalist ideology in front of the reality of the situation will haunt America for generations.
