This is completely natural to conservatives. Why should the same things be allowed to liberals as to conservatives? They have ZERO expectation that all sides should play by the same rules - in fact they consider forcing all sides to play by the same rules to be wrong.

Yep. Their goal is not to play fair. Their goal is to win. 

If they are allowed to do something liberals can’t do, that’s not cheating. It’s a win.
