I fear a lot of people are happy to look the other way when “my guy” is doing something, especially when it seems to be directed at whatever they fear.

That and I fear most people really don’t have any principles when push comes to shove.

Exactly. And that lack of principals is what we should be punishing as a society, not any particular position. The rest will work itself out in time.
People with principles are dangerous precisely because they aren’t bending the rules in support of the body politic.

You want a boy scout that focuses more on the group than the ideals.
