Because unfortunately, both sides are bad and one side is leaning hard on the other side being so off-the-rails they’re openly ranting about how badly they want to lock up and kill minorities.
If you don’t see how the absolute deranged criminality of the right is helping change expectations about what corruption is, you’re naive.
Literally, your post proves it, you’re more concerned with how it will affect people who see criminality and corruption on both sides, instead of admitting “Yeah, both sides do corrupt shit, but it’s firmly clear one side is off the rails and readily wants to hurt people.” It’s really easy to not have to offer anything of substance to your constituents if all you have to say is “The other guys literally want to kill you” and you’re being honest when you say it.
Your comment is literally an example of letting it slide. “That is unfortunate.” No, its grifting and accepting bribery to carve out an exception for your fucking buddy, something you’d probably be screaming fucking bloody murder about if it was a Republican doing it. Guess what, we can cry bloody murder about both and not act like it’s time to just let corruption happen because it isn’t as bad as the other sides corruption.
I made my comment 2 minutes before yours so it’s wild to me that you read the real reason and still threw a fit with that wall of text. Y’all just live on outrage, huh?
This dude owns way more than just a few Panera bread and he was literally just trying to follow the law and even so he decided to go ahead and pay them anyways even though according to the lawyers, he probably could have gotten away with it but you’re right bOtH SiDeS ArE tHE sAmE

If all you really took from it is “Both sides are the same” and not that “criminality actually has grades, and treating small crimes like they don’t matter because big crimes exist is a fallacy” then you’re an idiot.

Wait, you really think he was just going to do it if there wasn’t a big corruption uproar?

What a joke.

End the argument, or I will.

Random Internet commenter so desperate to hate Democrats he has to go after donors challenge: Super Possible.
Shucky darn, how awful it is of me to critique the people I vote for.
I forgot, we’re all supposed to be cult members who never question authority… Wait a minute that sounds all too familiar…
Maybe we shouldn’t be angling to be just like the MAGA idiots in justifying our sides’ criminality.
But if we criticize their criminality and hypocrisy, then they’ll lose.
They certainly won’t lose because of said criminality and hypocrisy, no. It’s because we couldn’t shut the fuck up and gawk at the other side
