Democrats politicians are allowed to put teeth into their threats.
If Trump or the republicans had ever done it, the media would have started screaming FASCISM! FASCISM. ...and everyone knows it.
Democrat pundits are allowed to suggest getting dirty and nasty with polticis, and the rest of the media applauds, but someone on the right in the media suggested these things, they’d be screaming nationalism or white supremacy or whatever crazy hyperbole they saw fit
All politics involving the Left is strictly Us and Them.
