The right’s real harm is framed as hypothetical, while the left’s harm is made to look "just as bad, without giving an example, you probably know this but your friend is pretty much a right winger.
Yeah every time I bring up trump saying things like “I am currently breaking the law spending campaign funds to pay off a pornstar” the most common right wing response is “that sounds like fake news, the media hates trump.” As I am actively trying to show them the court documents quoting him. They don’t care what actually is true, trump just passes the vibe check for “says republican things.”
I think my friend just doesn’t know a lot about it and assumes one side can’t just be doing completely insane stuff, and if trump constantly broke the law then of course he would be in jail, so if he isn’t in jail the stuff couldn’t be that bad. He would probably be a non-voter which in this case was essentially a vote for trump unfortunately.
