Both parties feed on fear. Each one tells the world that the other one will ruin everything with their sinister plans.

But the reality is, as always, somewhere in the middle of where the two opposing marketing machines are spewing at one another.

Trump had no problems with increasing the nation's debt, republicans cheered him on, because debt is a political pawn that both parties move where they see fit when they need too. Republicans in general use fear tactics and 'exestential' threats or religious context to get things done because they are fear mongers.
And the Democrats never stoke fear of what Republicans / Trump might do?
