    The other side already sends death threats and is calling for a war over a conviction against Trump by a jury of their peers. I dunno if I’d be that concerned about their take on hypocrisy.

      When Republicans make a concerted effort , they call for violence against their opponents. When Democrats do it, they write strongly worded letters.

      Except that’s terrorists doing terrorist things. If instead they were filing thousands of formal complaints against judge Merchan, that would be different.

      Sure, but why not just be better than them in every single aspect we can be? How about we let Jack Smith do what he’s obviously trying to do and not do bullshit like this.

      It obviously did nothing good. It only makes us look bad. There was no way this would ever go in our favor. You’re using the excuse of they did bad stuff so we can stoop a bit also. How about not?
