20. Or the Both Sides garbage.

When impeachment was announced the ABC News person said "both sides" about five times. As in, both sides are worried about the soul of the country and both sides are arguing the same points but coming to different conclusions, and both sides blah blah blah.

And the garbage about Democrats not caring about anyone but the 1% -- I still can't believe the person who in an interview the other day said Democrats had the presidency and Congress for two years under the Obama administration but "did not deliver for the American people." As if the ACA was nothing and wasn't terribly difficult to pass because Democrats only had the senate votes for a little over four months during those two years, Republicans didn't win the House because Democrats "did not deliver for the Americans people" and Both Sides. Can't believe anyone who isn't a Republican would say such a stupid thing.
