    When one side is actively trying to dismantle our government and destroy this country, maybe it deserves a little more scrutiny than the other. It isn't "both sides."

        A reasonable person can tell the difference, and if you can’t tell a difference, that speaks volumes.

        Yeah. And one side is *wrong*. The fact both sides *say it* is meaningless. Think of any terrible regime outside your own borders: If you read about their leader saying "My enemies want to destroy this country!", would you take it the least bit seriously?

        One side holds the house, senate, presidency and now holds a SCOTUS that will demolish any progressive law. The other side is the democrats. "Both sides" my ass.

        At this moment, however, one side is led by Donald Trump.

        Why in the world would you trust the GOP to tell you what dems are doing and then actually believe whatvtgey say? Thats like trusting them with not raping your country for their own gain. Its just a bad idea.

        But just because each side views it that way, doesn't make it actually so.

        1) There’s been a lot of handwringing in the media pundit corps and centrist politicians these days about the loss of comity, post-Kavanaugh. And then Donald Trump made them all look absurd with his remarks at his rally last night. Thread follows. pic.twitter.com/P0e81j7im4

        Yes. But someone is more right. As a serious commentator you have a real responsibility to make that known — and of course there are consequences to however you land.
