Politics.

I was raised to watch the evening news every night and read newspapers. I loved political fiction like House of Cards and the novels of Ross Thomas.

Even when Bush Jr. was President and lying us into a forever war I could observe without getting crazy.

Ever since Trump came along it's a pain to stay informed.

I use to love politics. Cable news and their over analyzing of everything, Trump's first term, and most importantly, the wide-eyed, foaming at the mouth 24/7 "horse race" punditry have all contributed to me souring on the topic
