As usual these days, nobody cares about the actual truth. Did your sports team win? Then cheerlead them forever, hand-wave away and excuse any wrongdoing! Did it lose? Then clearly the other team must've been a bunch of dirty cheaters! Truth? Who cares about truth? All that seemingly matters to most folks is whether their preferred team won or lost.
Political parties are not sports teams, and treating them as such is one of several factors combining to damage this nation at present. I don't like it, don't partake in it, but don't know how to stop it. Probably can't be....most likely it appeals to the tribal part of the human psyche.
