Biden took aim at the many Republicans who think Jan. 6 was legitimate protest
Early on in his speech, he made an effort to differentiate “MAGA Republicans” from the rest of the Republican Party, saying not all Republicans have anti-democratic tendencies. He’s right: there are significant, serious fissures dividing Republicans along those lines. But there is plenty of evidence that this coalition dominates the party.
Take the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol. On Thursday night, Biden called for all Americans to clearly renounce what happened as unacceptable political violence.
