    Understandable, but it is tiresome. It's everywhere. Radio, TV, Social Media. It just gets old hearing about it 24/7. I respect everyones opionion when it comes to politics no matter which side they are on and that's what is great about the US, we can have open opinions.

    Changing the subject slightly to social media, I agree. There is too much
    of it there and a lot of what is there is misinformation. The people who
    are constantly freaked out about what (politician name here) is up to are
    the ones that spend way too much time on Meta or X.

    I'm getting frustrated with the whataboutism. Defend your position, see
    if you can convince the other side.

    It is difficult to defend your position if it is based on misinformation or emotion. Usually people I disagree with, who don't stoop to cursing or
    citing long debunked information, who are able to explain their position I
    will listen to. I might not be convinced that time, but I will keep
    listening to them because they might have other valid points.
