EDIT:
I’m using these definitions for the word politician: https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/politician
noun. [UK] - a member of a government or law-making organization
noun. [US] - a person who is active in politics, esp. as a job

“But the other side does it more than we do!”
HOW ABOUT NEITHER SIDE DOES IT! HOW ABOUT WE MIND OUR OWN FUCKING BUSINESS!
