For me, I find it hilarious that it is politics these days. I would never go to one and kept it on for about 15 minutes. It is like a standup routine, as you said, which is entertainment to a degree.
I agree with this for the most part also, but it is pretty funny. If you ever watch cspan, or even just the impeachment hearings, the kavanough hearings, or similar stuff.. you hear/see people on both sides talk about their counter parts in the utmost respect, but they really dislike each other (or at least their bases do, as I feel they are rats and scum on both sides). "Tho I highly respect and appreciate my esteem colleague on the other side of the isle, I tend to disagree about such and such and such ". Mean while their voting bases despise each other till no end
I used to listen to cspan radio at time when I had to commute a lot, and it is like a boring soap opera of conniving, two faced assholes
Just kind of funny to see Trump talk and endless stream of shit.
