It's not new and it's far more broad than that. The staggering government corruption and incompetence has been ignored for decades. You can't just pretend that this is suddenly new and one sided if you want to solve the problem.

This both sides thing is so naive. One side is far more corrupt than the other.

It's naive and dismissive of the corruption to think it's not both sides. You're literally only seeing half the picture.

I didn't say there wasn't corruption on both side, I said one side is far more corrupt than the other.

I think it's naive not to see the "both sides" card get pulled anytime there is a criticism of the right. All the "centrists" come out to hold water for conservatives when their policies are clearly and specifically failing.

This just isn’t true, it is easy to find blatant corruption tied to politicians at all levels from both parties. Look at California, New York, Chicago, and Baltimore, look at the Biden family, the Clintons, Nancy Pelosi, Letitia James, the Democrats are just as corrupt, the mainstream media just reports on it less.

hahahha you just named a bunch of people with no criminal charges. That's it?

hahaha

I don't agree with them but tons of known corrupt Republicans have not been criminally charged. That means nothing.

yea, you're missing the point.

rattling off a bunch of people who haven't been criminally charged in response to a party whose leader quite literally HAS been charged with fraud is the point.

how many indictments were passed down during the Obama admin vs Trump admin vs Bush admin and so on. Republican admins are notorious for being criminals.
