No, sorry Yuval, but the both-sides won't fly in this case. On the one hand we have Republicans calling out Democrat lawfare, attempts to undermine and/or pack SCOTUS, undermining election integrity, violating the 1st, 4th, 6th, and 14th amendments, and generally shredding the Constitution.

No, sorry Yuval, but the both-sides won't fly in this case. On the one hand we have Republicans calling out Democrat lawfare, attempts to undermine and/or pack SCOTUS, undermining election integrity, violating the 1st, 4th, 6th, and 14th amendments, and generally shredding the Constitution. On the other hand we have sitting Democrat Congress members and prestige media comparing Trump to Hitler, ignoring or condoning threats against Kavanaugh and Alito, and talking about the end of democracy.

Just because the Left Can't Meme doesn't mean that these things are in any way equivalent.

I finished listening to the rest of the podcast, and it was generally excellent sober analysis by Yuval. Kudos.
