Agreed, but what if rage merchants attacked a moderate Republican the way they have Biden? Liz Cheney serves as an example.

Not precisely. The republicans who refuse to believe the facts of events which are clearly shown by the evidence. It's consistently 60% in polls.

And the polls had nothing to do with that, but you knew that already.

I'm sure that's all you saw of that day. It was just a peaceful demonstration. Just a bunch of law abiding citizens, right?

The condom simile works. My howitzer is blazing and there are zillions of wanna-be Bucking Bar babies, but the spread is nearly eliminated.

Yeah, that's the visual ... :-)
no it doesn't, the comparison is ludicrous. Wearing a Walmart bag over your face would be a better one. Or using a knit sock for a condom.

Selective enforcement is the worst kind of corruption because it attempts to mask itself in the air of legitimacy.

What if you were secretly followed and suddenly got a year's worth of speeding tickets for every individual instance you went 1 or more over? You'd probably owe a billion dollars and have infinity points on your licence but hey, the law's the law, right?

Care to sit for a 16 hour purgery trap while your political enemy's agents who personally hate you and have already looked at your entire life's emails and only need you to stumble one time with any inconsistency whatsoever and boom 5+ year felony...but you'd totally sit for that because you're clean and have nothing to hide I'm sure.

And you don't get to erase history simply by using the word trope. Beria was infamous for selective prosecution. He coined the term "show me the man and I'll show you the crime." I knew of him historically before I'd ever heard of Bannon so nice try but another swing and a miss, and an ad homenim at that. I expect better from you.

Lol, guess all those people going to jail for being “waved in” are just crisis actors playing the part
