If the shoe was on the other foot-------

[Atticus]

----and Democrats had done all that the Republicans have done:

---"our" seditionists---the equivalents of Cruz and Hawley and Jordan, etc.---would be expelled from Congress, as would anyone packing a pistol in the Capitol

---our president would now be in custody for numerous crimes and anyone in the Senate even suggesting his acquittal would be slammed in the media a d physically threatened by "patriots" in camo.

---the "nuclear option" would have been used yesterday

---our pleas for bipartisanship, compromise and unity would be met with rolling eyes and laughter.

---"elections have consequences" would precede "the voters gave us a clear mandate to do as we please".

---Dobbs', Hannity's and Carlson's nominations to the Cabinet would be approved by now.

---Newsmax would once again be longing for a nation "where liberals can be hunted down with dogs".

Things would be handled very differently, to be sure.

2. Thank You for posting this...Total Truth. "If the show was on the other foot"...

the show would be a lot different. Also, the show would have moved along a lot faster, and the
Republicans would be laughing all the way to the bank to deposit their increased money that they
collected on the...."show"
