    Concern-trolling aside, you accidentally make a good point about inequity of expectations for the two candidates.

    Being associated with a pedophile rapist should be disqualifying for anyone running for president.

    Trump has a known association with a pedophile rapist and is indeed himself an adjudicated rapist, meanwhile I winced hard reading at the end of this article that Beyonce has previously gifted Kamala tickets to see her back in 2023.

    There isn’t actually anything wrong with that, but the bar for impropiety for Harris is so low it’s a constant tripping hazard, while impropiety is just accepted as a burned in part of Trump’s big businessman personality.

    Its fucking insane and I appreciate you inadvertently highlighting it.

      Yeah Kamala did something potentially inappropriate once so we better put her under the microscope. Meanwhile Trump literally got people killed on January 6 but that’s just what he does so no big deal I guess.
