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.
