Unable to remove nor reinstall docker-ce; Both apt and dpkg hang without error in CLI

I initially tried to reinstall the docker-ce package when its service was not starting successfully but reinstall would hang at 20% progress. When that wouldn’t work I attempted to remove it, and then purging it as well.

I’ve also tried a handful of methods to try and remedy this including apt -f -install, sudo dpkg --configure -a, sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/*.deb, and sudo dpkg -r --force-depends docker-ce:amd64 commands without success

And running ps -Af during just shows two dpkg processes running under root (that I have left for hours)

Just tried reinstall and removal through Synaptic Package Manager knowing it likely wouldn’t be any different, and yeah, no dice.

Is there a way to reinstall or remove a package that I haven’t tried? How would I go about finding out what is at the root of this problem? As far as I can tell, it’s the only package doing this; everything else functions like normal.

Thanks,
Ken
