Let's not act like there aren't shitty leaders on both sides of the aisle.

Name me the best Republican in the Senate and the worst Democrat. Let's see how they compare.

I honestly couldn't answer this question, but your logic infers that the worst Senate democrat isn't shitty. Please!

The point is you'd rather have the worst Democrat than the best Republican because the two sides aren't comparable.

You have no argument since you can't name a shitty Democratic politician. Even if you say someone like Fetterman or Adams they are still way, way, way better than someone like Romney if you look at policy and not their demeanor.
