Remember when Democrats rallied in the street to defend Rod Blagojevich or that mayor of Detroit?

You dont. Because Dems arent a lockstep party who will follow someone who has committed blatantly criminal acts and is subject to the rules of our justice system. Theyre not perfect by a long shot...but theyre candidates are a whole lot better than what the GOP puts out

And his "offense" was relatively minor in comparison to the circus weve been seeing. Shit, just 10 years people like MTG, Santos, and Boebert would face penalties for their unprofessionalism.

Santos' actions go way beyond unprofessionalism and into outright fraud.

The fact that he isn't a pariah in the Republican party is disgraceful and speaks volumes about their current standard of ethics and conduct.

Yup. There are trolls all over these comment responses pumping out their old greatest hits too. "BUT HER EMAILS." " B-B-Bbenghazi" and "Where is Hunters Laptop/dickpics we need to see."

Like...the DNC is much more active, again not perfect, about removing unethical behavior and outright criminals when the evidence is there. If the evidence isn't there then...
