We must not confuse dissent with disloyalty. We must remember always that accusation is not proof and that conviction depends upon evidence and due process of law. We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven by fear into an age of unreason, if we dig deep in our history and our doctrine, and remember that we are not descended from fearful men. Edward R. Murrow
8 years ago I would agree with you, but after Obama destroyed the integrity of the office it's kind of a moot point now. I think this is partly why Trump won and still receives a lot of support; people are tired of this two faced system where one side is guilty of doing shit yet when the other party is in power the aforementioned party expects the party in power to be held to higher standards then they held their own party to.
Trump just doesn't care about playing nice because some people (who haven't been nice at all in 8+ years) feels he should be nice. It's actually refreshing to be honest. If Jeb! got in office he probably would be bending over backwards to appease people every time someone accused him of sneezing wrong.

No.
Democrats were proud when Obama was bashing the police, Christians, our country, and campaigning and supporting a presidential candidate more than any US president in history, because those are all things Democrats love and cherish.
I'm going to be proud when Trump calls out the bullshit happening in this country that I agree with him on as well and I'm not going to hold him to a higher standard than Democrats held Obama to.

The point you make is legitimate and that is the main problem. Our politics have become a "he said, she said" and that is a dangerous landscape to be in. The president regardless of whoever they are serves the greater good and has to transcend party lines once in power because his or her constituency becomes everyone and when both sides are self serving it creates the ripples in our communities we have. I get that out POTUS will have to lean one way or the other but overall the system has been skewing too much to each parties hard lines and has created a divisive nation, albeit because we allowed it to
