When a republican does something wrong, the other republicans support them and say that what they did wrong is no big deal and that everyone is being unfair to them.
They don't step down or admit wrongdoing. Because republicans are the party of extreme corruption and evil in all its forms. This is why they supported Trump simply because he isn't a democrat.
Grabbin pussoir? No problem, russian ties? nothin but lies, tax returns? we dont need to see that, he is a republican beyond reproach why even look at them, whatever wrongdoings it reveals are no big deal and the democrats fault.
But Democrats will not accept corruption in the same way, not to say democrats are never corrupt, they are but when they get caught democrat voters and legislators give them the boot. They get prosecuted and forced to leave office. Regardless, democrats put America first and party second. This is why Hillary lost. She was seen as potentially corrupt and that she had stolen the primary from bernie whether that is true or not, that was the perception and so democrat voters simply did not vote, and she lost to the "republican candidate" that republicans would vote for regardless of how despicable that person may be.
My point is, republican voters and legislators are party first, Traitors to the USA who care only about their team winning to the detriment of EVERYTHING else.
And democrats while not paragons of virtue are less so.
That is my perception and why I vote the way I do and why I think anyone who supports republicans has severely, fatally flawed decision making abilities.
That's as kind as I can put it.
