The destruction doesn't make for a photo-op like tearing down the East Wing of the White House or bulldozing the Rose Garden, but it's every bit as bad. Generations of American children learned to spell and count, learned the Preamble to the Constitution, from watching shows produced by the CPB.

Bc clearly they cannot be trusted with power & control over the levers of government, & they do not care about democratic constraints

People defending Biden doing nothing about Trump when he explicitly ran on doing something about Trump have weirdly selective memories about January 7th and how the entire political establishment was briefly in agreement that coup attempts are bad and should be punished.

Yes, this is exactly the time to demand Democrats "do something."
They can denounce Trump's actions as unconstitutional. They can state that he must be impeached and removed. They can make clear that all involved will be held accountable.
These are the core duties of a role they all signed up for.
