Great minds on both sides of the aisle. (Sometimes on one side, a preponderance of lesser minds can drown out the greater ones, though.)
But I'm seeing a trend that is almost forcing me to think Dems are, well, just thick, or slow on the up-take. Consider these commonalities. A couple women come forth with sexual allegations vs Cuomo. No reaction from the left, other than defending him. Then a third, then a 4th, then a 5th, still no acknowledgment of a problem. Then comes a 6th, and magically when the 7th comes forth, NOW the Dems finally recognize there's something wrong. At least give 'em credit, when the 8th came forward, they didn't revert back to defending the guy.
Then there's the border crisis. 10,000 illegals coming across a month, laden with drug and human traffickers and covid being brought into our country, and nope, no problem. Then it gets to 20,000, 30,000, 40,000, still no big deal, and certainly not THEIR problem. Then 50,000, then 60,000. Plenty of cries of the desperation of the situation from the right, but still denial from the left, despite it being many multiples the issue it was under Trump. But it keeps increasing, and at something like 100,000 such per month, all of a sudden Dems recognize there's something kind of serious going on here.
Those two phenomena are facts. I'll leave it to the reader to infer what he or she might.
