Joe Biden, seizing on the publicity over last week’s January 6th hearings, condemned his predecessor, Donald Trump, for sitting in his private dining room and watching TV but doing nothing to stop the siege on the Capitol as it unfolded on January 6th.
Biden, who is recovering from Covid, made the remarks during a virtual speech to the National Association of Black Law Enforcement Executives, telling them, “On January 6th, we relied on law enforcement to save our democracy.
