Make all the rationalizations you want, you're only deluding yourself and those poor fools who believe anything negative towards Trump and Republicans.

This, at least, makes clear your standard. You are not looking at what Trump does, but at what people "believe."  And at that level you find an unequal distribution.

As if negative comments about Dems and Trump, to be "fair," should be balanced equally between them, regardless the difference in quality, quantity and consequence.

But the central problem in the US today is not whether "fools believe ANYTHING negative towards Trump," but that the great bulk of that negative IS TRUE and people support him anyway. That can't be fixed by occasionally criticizing Hillary too.

I "ignore" when Biden confusedly distinguishes white kids from "poor kids" because that kind of gaff is qualitatively different from deliberately calling Mexicans "rapists," or urging Israel to ban US Congresswomen from visiting, or warning Americans repeatedly of an "invasion" of brown people heading for our borders, or claiming 3-5 million voted illegally in the last election. That's not just stuff people "believe" Trump did. He did it.

If Elizabeth Warren mocks a disabled person, you can be sure I will "make a negative comment," not clap and cheer and give her my vote.  If Harris urges a crowd to chant "Send them back" I will certainly criticize that, not join it. 

Until then, to equate occasional "remotely negative/racist/sexist" comments of occasional Democrats with Trump's daily fare of despicable inciting tweets just signals broken judgment.
