Making everything about politics is what poisoned our politics.
Yes. The media are the ones to blame for that (mostly) I think.
I remember news stories always used to present both sides (yes, I am that old)!
Everything is presented as a binary choice nowadays with no nuance.
Good guys and bad guys - it's very tedious and braindead.
That's one of the reasons I gave up watching TV years ago and just listened to podcasts instead. You will get far more valuable information and opinions from listening to comedians that the news or mostly anything on the TV.

Can’t argue with that!
