Questions complaints about politicians

Is there anything crazier than this?

I believe politician is the most disrespected profession in the country and criticizing them as a group is our No. 1 spectator sport. This is ironic because every elected politician can only be hired by U.S. citizens, even if they don’t vote. Shouldn’t politician bashing be done in front of a mirror?
