29. Garland is the worst of the worst of AGs

And yes, because of his incompetence and cowardice is why we are where we are today.

Everybody in the whole damn world (normal not MAGA world) knew cheeto committed crime after crime. But hey, let's wait 2 years to get the ball rolling. And do it very slowly as well please.

I can't believe Garland at one point could've been a SC justice. I can really imagine the dude siding with the conservatives 60-70 percent of the time. He's that incompetent.
