How much did the Learing Center steal from children and funnel into the DNC? And all the other bogus daycare center that did the same...

When you live in a glass house its best not to throw stones.

    This is an example of false equivalence, whataboutism and tribalism.

    False equivalence:
    Desantis is an elected republican politician. The Minnesota fraud was commited by unelected citizens.
    Desantis hasn't faced any consequences yet for his corruption. Several perpetrators of the Minnesota fraud are being prosecuted.

    Whataboutism:
    A republican commits corrupt acts and the argument used to defend it isn't related to that corruption case at all, instead it's "what about the DNC".

    Tribalism:
    Corruption by people from my tribe (republicans) is fine and people outside my tribe aren't allowed to call out crimes committed by people from my tribe. The moral point of view would have been that corruption is unacceptable irrespective of party affiliation.
