      The one who vote Republican are saying because Dems wouldn’t hold Dems accountable, there’s no reason for them to hold Republicans accountable.

      The ones who vote D are saying this is exactly what excusing illegal behavior from Dems leads to: Republicans doing it worse and with less competence making it a bigger problem.

      Like, you don’t get that? It’s not exactly hard to figure out on your own and they haven’t been quiet about their opinions.

      Excusing illegal actions by neoliberals we don’t even want, just makes it easier for Republican voters to believe both sides are the same amount of shitty. And makes people less likely to vote D, because D voters tend to have standards

      Hell, our last president violated US and international law, but the party (at that time) refused to do anything about it. Now trump is doing it, and the same fucking neoliberals that refused to hold Biden accountable a few years ago won’t stop screeching about fucking Hillary.

      You all are the reason Dems are impossible. Nobody wants a party run by uncharismatic assholes who think trump gives them a blank check to do anything they want

      It doesn’t, and acting like it is why trump keeps getting elected.

      I just don’t understand how people who willingly choose to spend their free time talking about politics remain ignorant to very obvious shit like this. Gas no one tried explaining any of this or do you just call anyone who criticizes a politician with a D by their name some stupid trump like nickname?

          Right…

          Some of the people that wanted Hillary held responsible for breaking the law also want trump held accountable.

          A lot of people act like that isn’t a real view and anyone who says it just really hates their team.

          That’s what most of the comments here are doing anyways

            I am yet to see any prominent Trump supporter, media person, or company call out this behaviour.

            That would imply that the vast majority are duplicitous.

            Now obviously we are all subject to algorithms so I might just not being presented with that content.

      Half a meter up their own ass, explaining how the content shared “wasn’t really war plans” so it basically doesn’t count.
