Its popular, entertainment politics without any substance. Look back at Trumps 4 years, he essentially passed on bill, a bunch of tax cuts that expire in a couple of years anyway, everything else he did was antagonistic or calculated to just motivate the base!!
I did see today that there was a House primary and Trumps chosen candidate was beaten by a more traditional Republican, that is a good sign.
Johnson does the same. Basically stir up shit that he cares not a lot about either way, and all the shouting and furore obscures whatever it is he's xxxx up at that point.
xxxx was a journalist remember. He knows the media are the real power in the UK and they all went to the same schools as him.
More and more I wonder if Brexit was the media barons revenge on the politicians for Leveson.
