The real "genie is not going back in the bottle" moment is that both sides have decided that power - at any cost - is a valid strategy.

And that's very apparent even in this article which leads with the logical fallacy of moral equivalence

". . . and America’s preeminent real estate fraudster who bankrupted six rigged businesses is all of a sudden concerned with supposed mortgage fraud"

BOTH are guilty, BOTH are crooked!

This directly leads to a lot of "the whole system is broken, may as well get mine"

Maybe both are guilty. One is guilty and trying to remove the other from office because of the other's guilt, though.

That is, maybe both are guilty. Maybe both should be removed from office. But Trump's guilt (actual convictions, in fact) leave him no room for saying that someone should be removed from office on the basis of mere accusations.

This boths sides stuff is such bullshit, we have armed goons disappearing people on the streets, there's only one side doing this. There were no armed goons disappearing people in the streets last year, it is very clear that both sides are not the same.

>This boths sides stuff is such bullshit, we have armed goons disappearing people on the streets,

When people used to say "disappearing people off the streets", they were trying to paint a picture out of Orwell's 1984, where the secret police not only drag someone off never to be seen again, but no one can or will acknowledge that they were ever born in the first place.

When people today say "disappearing people off the streets", they mean illegal aliens are being detained to be deported to their home countries, but not actually deported because it takes forever for the court cases to slowly roll onward. But these same people also confused and hysterical why only rabid Democrats are alarmed by this.
