WASHINGTON, Jan 6 — President Joe Biden yesterday that the events of Jan 6, 2021 -- when Donald Trump’s supporters stormed the US Capitol -- should not be forgotten or “rewritten” four years on. “I don’t think we should pretend it didn’t happen,” he told reporters at the White House, a day before Trump’s comeback victory is set to be certified by Congress. After Biden’s victory in the 2020 election, then-president Trump called for Congress and his vice president to block the certification, falsely claiming widespread fraud had led to his loss. Following a rally outside the White House, Trump’s supporters stormed the Capitol building and forced the certification to be delayed until early the next morning. “I think what he did was a genuine threat to democracy,” Biden said yesterday, but adding: “I’m hopeful that we’re beyond it.”He also emphasized his efforts to ensure a “smooth transition.”Biden frequently cast Trump as a threat to democracy when he was the Democratic presidential nominee running against the Republican, before being replaced on the ticket by Vice President Kamala Harri
