I'm seeing more and more references to "whataboutism" lately throughout the social media and mass media...it's almost like the Mother Ship sent out a new trope for the minions to repeat over and over.
But it's not new. Over ten years ago our own hcap was chiding right-leaners here for playing the "but Clinton did it too" card.
Look, dude, I'm a conservative Republican with libertarian sympathies in favor of smaller government, too. But I see some practical value in partnering with centrist pragmatists if it means keeping Dems, socialists, and the new Democratic Socialists out of office where they always have and always will abuse their power.
