The truth of a statement has nothing to do with the vileness of the person who utters it. Well except to people so blinded by ideology that they wouldn't know the truth if you asked them to prove it.
Just because some stupid MAGAts also don't like her means nothing, except to fools.
It's because of people so partisan that they even pick at stupid arguments, such as 'well, person XXX, a known asshole said this, so it must be false' that we aren't taken seriously when there is ACTUAL racism and sexism.
An act is exactly the same degree of wrong, or right, regardless of who does it. She supported genocidal statements and she plagiarized; only an utter fool could excuse those and say she should remain at the head of anything more than a popsicle stand.
And yeah, any time an anti-Semite is taken down, I rejoice, ALWAYS, regardless of any other circumstances or context.
