All the daily constituent tug-of-war contests that have been happening since the midterm elections have me wondering if we citizens really are gullible enough to believe that our political leaders aren’t working together behind the curtain, manipulating the voters like marionettes.

I am extremely tired of politicians’ bogus divisiveness and condescending, elitist attitudes. Our legislators are so entrenched in the system they have become lifetime politicians and will carry on hoodwinking and misleading us until stopped.
