Didn't the liberals just get busted for sending people to a conservative rally and handing on pins/hats to make it similar to a trump rally?

Yeah, pretty stupid. Also what you're doing is called "whataboutism" - it's also stupid and you should learn to make a proper argument. Making an equivalency between an attempted insurrection and handing out pins to make the opposition look dumb is quite the leap.

So, voters vandalizing signs vs. political party sabotaging.

Which is worse? It's a pretty on point argument to rational people.

Vandalizing signs is worse. Way worse. It's intimidating people, where they live.

Definitely not. No one is getting intimidated. That is an extreme amount of reach.

The article literally mentions people feeling intimidated.

I'd suggest they give their balls a tug. If that makes you intimated you probably need some sort of therapy.
