Monday

Cox, a moderate Republican, said he has seen the phenomenon play out “in real time since the tragic death of Charlie Kirk” and in “every corner of our society.”

It has bene playing out in real time for decades now. You just did not want to say anything because it was your side that was using it to advantage. Now that the advantage is gone, they want to act as if they did not want it either.

Pathetically hypocritical behavior. And, typical.
