    The right doesn’t care about bigotry and double standards. It’s not just okay if their politicians lie and do bad things, it’s expected and supported. Compared to that, the left is definitely more aware of their own politicians misdeeds, and actually punishes them.

    If you want examples, just look how long it took the right to remove Santos from his position - and even then the majority tried to keep him in his position.

        Could you show me where I cheer her on?

        If you want to, you can list a couple of the ethical issues you speak of. If they are actual ethical issues, I’ll disavow her here and now.

        But I can’t imagine that they rise to the utter shit-show that was Santos, who - again - is STILL supported by the majority of house republicans.
