Both sides are making nice right now. But that shouldn't be construed as both sides having equal human decency. One side fakes it.

Every single thing about this killer pandemic is unprecedented, so whatever our side's leaders do, within the context of this pandemic -- from governors who "go along to get along" to candidates who make nice calls -- I'd only consider prudence, and due diligence, in dealing with an otherwise life threatening dicktater.

Just my opinion.
