It's evidence that the transnational criminal conspiracy is bipartisan.

If the rules are only for Democrats then there are no rules.

And speaks poorly of a bloodless Democratic Party.

Of course it's a win for democracy. How is ANY 'd'emocratic 2-Party system preserved if both major parties refuse to follow the rules?

They are no longer "norms" if only 1 side follows them.

Let’s get this straight: Republicans only pretend to care about democracy when it benefits them. The Democrats are the ones actually keeping the ship afloat, trying to uphold norms while the GOP sabotages the system for their own gain. That’s not strength—it’s desperation.

It's not even a sign of a weak democracy. It's a sign of a dead democracy.
