And history books and just about anywhere that talks about tariffs. ;)

I disagree here.  If they are close to the middle of the spectrum, yes.  If
they are closer to the poles, no, they gripe about it just as much.

An example as of late has been Signalgate.  "Republicans are hypocrites for
wanting Hillary to get into trouble but not these guys," but then when you
point out that, no, they should have all been in trouble, including
Hillary, they get mad because they think she didn't do anything wrong and
that you must be a MAGAt to think that.

> I want people indicted if they break the rules regardless of party.

Same here.
