A long time ago I watched Robert Redford in "The Candidate".
I know he was a progressive douche bag but still a decent actor.
His character had to keep answering the same questions over and over.
His manager had him making the same speeches over and over.
He finally had a mini-meltdown while in the backseat of the limo where he began saying the same **** to himself and it turned into him going,"blah, blah blah..."
As a young adult I had a teachable moment from that scene. I'd be way less gracious than most of the politicians I see giving interviews and public speaking in general. I can understand the reactions to leading questions and bad faith actors all around.
You got your Nancy Pelosi's standing up and tearing up a paper type theater (yuk).
You got your MTG's in the hallway saying, "**** this ****" in real frustration.
I wouldn't make a very good poster boy for myself.

Politics has become entertainment rather than governance
The losers are the ones with the veins popping out of their foreheads when they hear the slightest thing they don't like
it's become a battle between good and evil....the evil is on both ends....but only one end has chosen violence
if the other end goes that route?....that's when it stops being entertainment...we will be two ends with no middle..
