There is no whataboutism coming from me. You are welcome to point out where I've advocated for such a thing.

For the last four years there has been a constant refrain that we need "adults in the room". Right now more than ever, we do. For some people the chickens are coming home to roost and I'm just saying -- we -- and by "we" I mean reasonable people -- should avoid our worst tendencies in this moment, even privately.
