Not liberal. I'm registered independent.
Ok, apologies for that then. Changing my registration to (I) is something I personally need to get to. Believe it or not, I'm registered (D) lol. Thirty-five years ago, when I first registered, that was certainly true of my positions and beliefs. But I've aged and the (D) party has lost its mind. Jack Kennedy wouldn't have anything to do with those commie weirdos.
Also, the "both sides are equal" argument is asinine and tribal.
That wasn't my point. It was more about corruption being universal and non-partisan, and a human constant. As common folk, we each select the platform that aligns with our personal policy beliefs .. but it should be with the knowledge and understanding that those who hold the offices of power will be skimming for themselves and perverting the system to their own ends while somewhat representing that platform. In that respect, both sides are equal and it will always be so. Human nature.
Trump and his administration are objectively bad and should be removed from power. It's not a bipartisan issue, this fucks over the whole country. Wake up, this isn't some petty "but your side" game where we fling shit at each other, Trump is OBJECTIVELY BAD. He lies, insults, rants, uses social media irresponsibly, is terrible at official meetings with other people of power. He's a fucking embarrassment to the entire goddamn country, liberals conservative or what the fuck ever you call yourself. Step outside your bubble and take in the swathes of direct, primary evidence of terrible conduct demonstrated by this fool. Nobody's perfect, especially not this pathetic excuse of a representative of 100's of MILLIONS of people.
On this we'll just have to disagree. And the fact that you think this tells me you haven't been around long enough to know what the hell you're talking about, and you're too impressionable. I'm looking around and see things mostly same or better than they were a few years ago.
