I've Looked at Life from Both Sides Now...

MSNBC posted an article yesterday whose sub-heading says, "By now, there's no reason Democrats shouldn't understand why voters are split almost down the middle when it comes to the party that owns the issue of 'democracy.'"

Oh, cool, "Maybe the party itself has muddied the waters."

It's one thing to say some Democrats haven't run strong campaigns (which may be true or not) -- but to suggest Democrats have "muddied the waters," that this is a "but both sides" issue because literally-fascist Republicans (who don't appear to understand or at least just care what fascism actually is and so support actual fascist policies and fascist candidates) say, oh, no,  it is they believe "democracy" is at risk...is pathetic.

Next, perhaps we'll see MSNBC write "Victims in horrific mass school shooting call for stricter, safer gun laws. But gun-owners are split on protecting schoolchildren, so maybe the victims themselves have muddied the waters.
