    Democratic voters don’t change their opinions based on who is doing the thing

    Oh, Democrats still do support hypocrisy. Just to a lesser extent.

    E.g. Democratic voters are against insider trading, except when Nancy Pelosi does it. (For balance, insider knowledge about tariffs was 10x more profitable)

    The current worshiped charismatic dictator is on the right, but there is absolutely no reason they couldn’t also emerge from the left with similar support.

    E.g. Biden created the Patriot Act and it doesn’t get more authoritarian than that.

    I’m not supporting “The Right” I’m saying what happened could equally happen on the left.
