You had to know that I'd throw the 'false equivalency flag' on you, right?
Even going back to Obama we saw the GOP treat him and the Dems as illegitimate, not worthy of governing. See McConnell's meeting on inauguration evening, '08, followed by 7 years of tea party madness.
Trump raised the bar with his pathetic early calls that he couldn't lose unless the election was stolen, and then he and Congressional Republicans hammered that 'stop the steal' meme throughout the transition that never was, a real transition.
Not EVEN the 1/6 riot could get a majority of Republicans to change their disgraceful tune and reprehensible behavior.
Left need to respond and not worry about what it looks like.
The left needs to be careful they don't become as bad as the right....
