Following and having an opinion about an issue (especially one as noteworthy as an ex-president's indictments) doesn't exclude the possibility of having a meaningful discussion about other things. But it is going to be at the front of the news cycle until it's resolved. We could look at the investigations of Hunter Biden and say the same thing. It's newsworthy, it's noteworthy and it's going to be discussed at length.

Discussion and obsession are not the same thing. Most of us here, regardless of which side of the aisle we stand, can have a relatively adult discussion regarding Trump. 

Mike is obsessed with blaming him for every damn thing going on in this country. Every. Damn. Thing. Discussions get hijacked by him either blaming Trump or.... You know what? Who cares actually. I made my comments and I'm not explaining myself anymore. 

Y'all spend your time talking about it if you want to. I'm done. Not worth it.
