The thing is, dems can do whatever they want. We elevated them and they are still weak in face of fascism. It’s easy for them, too. They take their time and plan their little scuttle butt knowing there will be no consequence for them. No matter what little scuffle they get into they will go home to their bags of money and high level connections. What would have happened if the democrats put in a pitbull for an AG? The Republicans get upset? They curse their names and say, “you’ll rue the day.” They already do it. They do it when the dems accidently step on a toe. They do it pretending the dems actually did something or stood for anything. The democrats just cower away, afraid to upset the money train and lose their station. It’s a joke. There’s nothing to gain here. They lost, you don’t understand. This was the off ramp. This was the resistance. It’s a sunk cost. You will waste resources going back to this empty well.
Hypocrisy is a virtue if you plan to break the rules. You’re signaling to your allies that you all can do whatever you want.
Any time you come up with some hypothetical involving politicians and hypocrisy, you need to remind yourself of the above.
