I think I've realized why politics is bugging me so much this time aroind

I'm just getting too old (80) to take all this shit. I don't remember all of this crap going on in getting candidates
elected at the primaries before. (And I presume in the general election.)
Any one remember anything close in the past??

This is just a total mockery of our so-called democracy. It's so repulsive that I have reached the point where I say to hell with it all.
