It’s true that both sides are engaging in vandalism in this debate when it comes to compaign headquarters. And when I say that I usually doubted that vandals painting a W on a Democratic headquarters or throwing a rock through the window of a Republican one are higher-ups.
But when a targeted attack on a Democratic campaign office in crucial swing state Ohio is perpetrated the antennae go up. And when it isn’t vandalism, but the theft of computers with sensitive GOTV information then you have to wonder.
This sort of behavior is simply reprehensible. It undercuts the legitimacy of the election, it sullies the Republican party, and it simply doesn’t belong in the democratic process.
No one should condone this behavior, for any reason whatsoever.
