That would be both parties. This shit is staged political theatre.
It's disappointing to see how things have become more polarized over time.
Sure, the Bush/Gore election was somewhat contentious (mostly over the Florida recount). Obama/McCain was way worse. Hilary/Trump blew that out of the water. I shudder when I realize that things are only going to get worse from here.
The dystopian political future depicted in Idiocracy was to take place 500 years in the future. Sadly, I think we are only 2 or 3 election cycles from a President Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho. The Kavanaugh story is just another step towards the future where the balance of government power will be decided by things as silly as the high school rumor mill.
