It’s not about bad or good even, it’s about having “principles” and acting on them. Democrats in general, for better and worse, are permissive to all kinds of stuff but have a real hard time agreeing on where lines are drawn and picking hills to fight for and die on together.

It’s like a kid having a tantrum on the floor of a public place and the parent going “sorry this is horrible but this just how he acts” and doing nothing to correct them or change the situation when they totally can.

Republicans don’t really have that problem, even when it’s objectively the dumbest shit ever.
