    Oh… it’s mocking when Dems do it…

    Why isn’t it just behavioural parity?

    Are both sides not allowed to behave the same? Be equal?

      Are both sides not allowed to behave the same? Be equal?

      No, because democratic voters at least occasionally have principles.

      I get what you’re saying here, but if Dems start acting “equivalently” to Republicans we’re gonna have a real big, serious problem.

          Imho it does nothing.

          No dropping or raising of the level from dema has affected maga discourse in the least.

          They will do the exact same shit. We have had too many years to learn that lesson now.

          Either smack back (rhetorically) or they will just make up something anyway.

        To an extent, I say it’s about time you do.

        Not with policy or law breaking. Not that crazy shit.

        But rhetorically. Imho it’s time for American Dems to stop playing so nice…

        The evidence is all available online. If you support trump for office you want a king.

      That’s the point of Trump’s leadership style. Things aren’t equal. There are rules for other people, but they don’t affect him though. Hypocrisy among his flock is a virtue. It shows they will all reward each other.

        When presented with the American constitution or trump, and they chose trump, its self evident that they just want a king.

        So many well meaning centrists and left leaning people in America have cut maga so much slack for 8 years…

        Maga definitionally wants to replace the United states constitution and establishment. The conversation should be happening on those terms. But most the outspoken left leaning voices are too scared.
