Politics in America is basically just like everything else. It’s just a brand people adhere to regardless of who works there. It’s the fast food of government.

If you like McDonalds better than Burger King, that’s where you’re gonna go. You don’t care who the manager of the McDonalds is. It doesn’t impact your decision.

That’s American politics now.

I dunno', I think sports team analogies hit a lot closer to home. Fanatics for their team, even if the team has scored on themselves...

I’m Trump’s case, the fans are too dumb to realize that he scored on himself and cheer anyway.
