Side discussion: I don't use the word "circus" anymore for politics

We've probably all done it: "this is a circus", etc.

But a friend of mine is a circus performer and she just convinced me to stop saying that.

A circus is an incredibly skilled and controlled presentation of the illusion of chaos. This government is the real thing.

No circus performer would ever be as unprofessional or unskilled as the shit we see from Republicans right now.
