Definitely worse because they make the crap Republicans come up with look sane.

"sanewashing" is the term I've seen used here to describe it, more for news media, but I think it fits here too.

They are just spending time fixing problems that don’t exist and creating problems where there doesn’t need to be. Both sides are a bunch of asshole right now. Cut from the same cloth. There are a few standouts of course, Jasmine Crockett and AOC

A high schooler on the JV debate squad knows that significance of a problem is a prima facie issue.

💯 it is bad enough that the republicans do this, we don’t need the Dems to also pull those PR stunts and further gaslight Americans over immigration. Especially at a time when they are sending people to El Salvador gulags without due process.

If they have to issue statements like that, back office deals are being made.

And don’t think the Dems didn’t also just make a whack of $$ off of Trump’s recent market manipulation/world economy pull.

Exactly. We saw Chuck Schumer sell you guys out on the budget bill a few weeks ago. Pretending it was a sudden turn of events. It wasn’t. It was planned. They all had plans that weekend, they knew they wouldn’t need the overtime.

You are literally doing the exact thing you criticize. You taking it as a given that Republicans are evil and democrats are worse is literally normalizing the bigotry of republicans.

Idk, I think you should be going AFTER the people who are doing this, have more anger for THEM? In what world would you give the accomplice a worse sentence than the perpetrator???
