    There may be something there if that highlighting were limited to “moral equivalence”. However, even then, it’s probably something someone said from the floor, so the phrase will be on all their minds.

        So Democrats are trotting out Republican talking points?

        I’d argue that this one goes beyond partisanship; the entire congress (with a few exceptions) feels that they are above international law.

        This has been going on for years; see the steel and softwood lumber disputes with Canada for something closer to home.

        Same mindset, just now applied to international war crimes instead of trade disputes. Because any US advantage can’t be an unfair advantage.
