    Politics has always been a bloodsport.

    Not before then? 9/11 forward? All I know is that during my lifetime politics didn't used to be an epithet. It didn't used to be known for the lies and corruption and criminals and nutjob crackpots. Today? THE BIG LIE Party is brimming over with conspiracy theory lunacy. A very bad strain has spread geometrically infecting and evilizing the hosts. When will the tide turn? Maybe never? Thank you for your reply Durdle. :)

    Since 44BC at least. That's when Gaius Julius Caesar was assassinated, by a bunch of Senators, in the Senate.

    Et tu Brute? Well what do you expect of a species that starts off with Cain murdering his brother Abel? Downhill from there. Thank you for your reply R! :)

    Not hardly.   Politics has been a bloodsport since the day it began.  Unfortunately, the real losers aren't the politicians, but the common people.

    I recall other times, better times believe it or not. These times are strange times. Something out of a vile evil cartoon. Pols are now caricatures. They used to be real people. When/why they morphed into what they are now is unknown to me. Thank you for your reply Shuhak. This post was edited by RosieG at May 1, 2021 2:56 AM MDT
