I hope that Joe keeps on calling TFG the former guy

President Biden will lay out the significance of what happened at the Capitol, the singular responsibility President Trump has for the chaos and carnage that we saw, White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Wednesday. She added that Biden has been clear-eyed about the threat the former president represents to our democracy and how the former president constantly works to undermine basic American values and rule of law.
Biden has criticized Trump by name on only a few occasions during his first year in office, and aides have made it clear he is reluctant to stir partisan fires or elevate Trumps falsehoods. But some Democrats argue that Biden urgently needs to take on Trump more directly as the leader of a movement that is challenging Americas democracy.....
For all that, it remains unclear if Biden will call out Trump explicitly by name. He has done so before, but at other times he has referred to his predecessor indirectly, on one much-noted occasion calling him the former guy.

The TRUTH is going to hurt. Congressional Republicans are going to complain to high heaven on FAUX, OANN, etc , about how Joe is dividing the country. Cruz, McCarthy, Greene, Graham will be front and center with their cries for impeachment because Joe hurt their feelings.
