Yeah, it's a "both sides" argument, while it actually isn't both sides. The comment is trying to paint politicians from both sides as equally bad, while I have only read articles about republicans doing this. And they've been at it for years, it must have been 2019 or 2020 when I first read about the book thing.

But moral standards for democrats are slipping as well, which is why I wanted to give that poster the benefit of the doubt and I was hoping that someone could provide a source showing that (some) democrats too are now guilty of this.
