So if there’s criticism of dems, which is valid, there’s a seeming lack of acknowledgement of the risks trump poses
Dems have ALWAYS been held to a higher standard. They have to be flawless, while Republicans literally get to be lawless.
It’s absurd and is a damning condemnation of the intelligence of the average American. If Dems don’t do exactly as we want with halos over their heads, we just throw our hands up in the air and go with our direct abusers instead. It’s pathetic. It’s so childish.
It’s like the al franken thing. What he did in that joking photo was 100% wrong. But was it requiring he be expelled? Further, an active, effective blue legislator was lost for something conservatives would never have done. In some cases that’s a damn good thing.
So, on the one hand, punishment and criticism was required, but the standard is so sky high that dems just lose to republicans.
Please be clear, I’m not condoning his behavior or suggesting nothing should have happened, but I think the action shouldn’t have been running him out of town without question.
