Lol Biden can't do shit. He would have to start purging the military and install loyal generals that would be willing to arrest trump, but he doesn't have time. He'd have to have predicted that trump would win and started doing that in 2021. And even then, the democrats in congress isn't gonna let him purge the military, and the supreme court definitely aint letting him.

The president doesn't have unlimited power. The supreme court only said the president and former presidents can't be punished for crimes, not that they have said power to commit such crimes. Biden would still have to find a yes-man to do his bidding. The military leans conservative, law enforcement leans conservative. What is Biden supposed to do? No one is gonna obey his orders to "arrest trump", aint happening.

WTF are you talking about about? The military leadership being willing to uphold the law and defend the Constitution should be the status quo, and have absolutely fuck-all to do with any sort of loyalty to Biden.
