the resignation of one of their own for crossing a line, while GOPers don't care how many lines are crossed and how much reprehensible behavior they tolerate on their side. How is that a bad thing? Anyhow, the Mueller investigation isn't going away no matter what else goes on at the same time.

They were running out of pearl clutch-worthy scandals so they had to change the subject. It's just a real-time example, for them, that racism is a both sides do it thing.

have missed an opportunity.
Yes while doing the right thing and calling for a resignation of a Democrat

AS you see Repugs do it all the time.
