    In the last fifteen years, Republicans have been on the attack for everything Democrats do. They don’t pick and choose their battles. They are perpetually aggressive and now they have all three branches of government. No one has to care what suit Trump wears, but any excuse to make fun of him means your side is on the attack.

    I think it’s some cultural thing where you wear black to funerals and no one but the bride wears white to weddings. Rules people made up to get mad at other people are bizarre and awful but I’ll use them to attack fascists any day of the week. edit: typo

        Liberals as in Neoliberals do. Neocons and fascists definitely don’t, but will claim they do. Progressives have thankfully figured out they can be mean. The fact most Democrat politicians are useless neoliberals doesn’t mean we have to be.
