It so anti Trump it has ruined it for me. I am binge watching and up until season 5, I could overlook most things. The border, really?

This season went full anti-Trump and pro Hillary. It was so pro Hillary that they actually had Hillary on the show. Seasons 1-4 were very entertaining. This season is a political propaganda brainwashing disaster gone awry. The Hollyweird liberals need to get over the fact that Hillary lost and Trump won..

The writing just gets better. Could have done with Clinton taking about uniting, but still impressive.
-
Oct 08, 2018
I can't believe that the writers would stoop so low to have Hillary on their show. I normally watch you show but I deleted this episode and will cancel the recording if this is the path that you are taking.
