The videos illustrate that politics are an illusion. Politics is theater. It has little to do with life itself. To the extent that politics matters, the influence is wholly negative. It is about causing wreckage and then lying about the real source. It's a great tribute to this country [ USA ] and its people that we have managed to survive the onslaught, year after year.
