You’re being downvoted, but that is EXACTLY how this otherwise benign moment will be weaponized by the right.
Republicans WILL share this as a slander, and the Dems will utterly fail to clarify the truth. They suck at clearing up Republican BS partly because clearing up lies always takes longer than speaking the lie, but the Dems have a track record of falling on their ass in the attempt.
The ratchet effect is real, which is why “enlightened centrism” is nothing but a moronic farce that runs cover for the ratchet mechanism. Republicans are literally vile, selfish pieces of shit that do not know what America stands for (or rather do not like what America stands for), and they MUST be treated as such.
Literal traitors should NEVER get the benefit of any doubt.
