Check yourself 

Friendly reminder that if someone you dislike says something that triggers you, it’s probably a good idea to see if someone you do like said it first so you don’t look like an ignorant hypocrite.  Ex. Sean Spicer said something that some could argue is true, but people didn’t like; strangely enough Chris Matthews and the NYT both said the same thing years earlier with no I’ll will or fake outrage.  Ditto when Ben Carson talked about slaves as immigrants and was lambasted, but on numerous multiple occasions Obama made that same analogy and used almost identical words.  You can’t have it both ways.
