Lots of people in the US treat politics like religion. There is no discussing issues; they want somebody they can relate to or someone who can make them feel. Most folks simply run away from anything political, and promising them things is the only way to get them interested. You start talking about inverted yield curves, the failure of trickle down economics, how they will not be attached to a job they hate with universal healthcare, and they doze off. It's hopeless out there.Still so wild to me. A politician could give me everything i've asked for and i'm not going out there to ride his meat like this. It's like these people forgot what his role is supposed to be and are just enamored by his persona.
