Comment on Why isn’t "Democrats would never get away with this" seen as a problem for the left?”

Why isn’t that argument taken more seriously by people on the left as an implicit admission that the left is politically weaker or less effective at wielding power?
The issue is not the left being weaker, the issue is with the right being corrupt as fuck and never prosecuting their own, even when they commit war crimes or rape kids. Whereas the left, at least pretends to care when someone from the party does some crazy shit and they do prosecute their own.

Oh come on now, the dems give everyone other side a pass. Look at Al Franken, what he did was way worse than anything in the Epstein files and got off scott free.
Er, wait…that is what happened, right?

One time back in 1998 he told like four unfunny jokes in a row. Four of them. IN A ROW! And you expect the American people to just let that slide? You make me sick.
