Purges are highly unusual. The attempt to obstruct the peaceful transfer of power was highly unusual. The mass pardons of hundreds of violent supporters of the president? Highly unusual.
But not for an authoritarian.

Justice Samuel Alito spoke with Donald Trump shortly before Trump’s lawyers asked the Supreme Court to delay his hush-money sentencing.
Alito Spoke With Trump Shortly Before Supreme Court Filing
