'Trump Called Me a Piece of S***!’ Iran War, Lindsay Graham & More | With Ro Khanna & Mehdi Hasan
"Do politicians give the benefit of the doubt to their own side? Yes. Do I need to be more sensitive to the biases we bring? Yes. Should we think about how we treat the imperfections of our opponents and people on the other side with far less forgiveness than we do our own side? Yes."
Congressman Khanna candidly acknowledged that partisan tribalism influenced his delayed response to sexual assault allegations against Democratic Senate candidate Graham Plattner, whom he had endorsed. Khanna admitted politicians reflexively defend their own side while quickly condemning opponents for similar behavior, calling it a mistake requiring self-reflection about political biases.
