Americans compare politics to sports all the time, and it's bizarre.

I get it - we have only two teams that are really allowed to participate. Decisions all boil down to 'our team wins' or 'their team wins' 99% of the time. Like basketball, or football, or baseball, or tennis, etc.

But the notion that W and Hillary earned their positions on merit, like Steph Curry did, is astounding. That's hilarious that anyone can say that with a straight face. Hillary was the second most detested politician in America, second only to Trump - who she deliberately elevated for that exact reason.
