It would be bad though to claim that critizising Dems is out of place as long as Trump can still be considered even worse. Hypocrisy of Trump supporters is one thing. To use that as some kind of carde blanche for the own team is something else though. Yeah Dems are held to a higher standard, for that's what they should hold themselves to, also that's what they claim they are, people with higher standards than Trump. They should behave accordingly and no pointing to Trump should alter that.

Seeing it diffently would mean Trump can indeed succeed in lowering all standards, imho.

Dems have been held to higher standards long before Trump. You think they could have stolen a SCOTUS seat for example? The biggest anti-constitutional act we've witnessed in recent history until Trump was allowed to solicit foreign interference in our elections. You think Obama could be on his third marriage to a porn star after paying off a porn star and bragging about grabbing p*ssy's? He couldn't even wear a tan suit. Michele couldn't even show a shoulder without backlash. You think they would have accepted her (including "Christians") if she was a porn star with girl on girl action at that?

Until Americans quit making excuses as to why Dems can't do what Republicans do things will never change. We witnessed Dems join Republicans in criticizing Nancy for ripping up a piece of paper. Americans attack Hillary for years for using a private server as Trump and family continue to use personal cell phones and private servicers and don't even hide it.

It certainly won't change when Dems join Republicans in attacking their own as they continue to do, even as they see Republicans unquestionable defense of anything Trump. Losers. If you didn't know why, now you know, or are seeing the issue with their party and voters.
