    Lemmy is an echo chamber but I’ll say if for those rare republicans in the back:

    If a prominent democrat has skeletons like this in their closet, they deserve the same scrutiny / disrepute as any republican.

    Party means nothing

        Not what I said at all. Try again.

        This is about the common republican whataboutism, and clarifying that no political party is above scrutiny.

          I read his comment as also being addressed to the Republicans in the back: a concurrence, not a rebuttal.

            So many people online take replies as contradictions when they’re meant to be support. It’s frustrating.

          Let’s not get this twisted, there are likely zero Republicans on lemmy, and if there are, they can only be counted on one hand.

        Your opinion was already addressed by “lemmy is an echo chamber”.

      Yeah, that’s why the democrats called for the immediate resignation of weiner, Adams, menenedez, and cuomo. Republicans circle wagons every time one of their own is credibly accused. Even bringing it up in the same context is disingenuous.
