Words pretty much fail me on commenting about what Biden has said concerning this incident on that Jan.6...... I guess the best way to approach the subject would be to think about the happening and to look at it in about the exact opposite of what Biden has said.
Dueling definitions about “democracy” and “freedom” appear to be on the agenda. “American democracy” is something of an oxymoron, as the United States of America has NEVER been a democracy, but a representative republic, that uses democratic means to choose its leaders, on a rotating basis, at regular intervals. “Freedom” does not mean license to attack rivals by any means available, but to come to a kind of interaction that is as free from friction as can be achieved, not imposing the whim of some mercurial temporary majority upon those not in positions of power.
