My View of Politics and Whatnot

Even if I am just some kid, I know a bit about politics. So I will talk about it. Nowadays, presidential election has gone from being a serious debate, to some sort of game. Mainly because of Trump. See, this is one of the reasons we shouldn't let game show hosts run for president. Trump literally treats it like some kind of game, using game show-like strategies to come out on top. It's horrible. I reckon that as he says racist and un-american things as he does, he is smiling inside because he knows that he will have his face on a third of the news, and everybody will know who he is, and know a lot about him just by speaking to other humans. And, as the saying goes, any attention is good attention, especially for Trump. People do similar things with games. They make a game that many parents will hate so that people will protest, and their games will be well known, on the news, and in conversation. And thus, more people end up buying those games. And some people use a Trump strategy for making popular video. They make videos where they insult and say bad things about someone or something that everyone loves. And because everyone hates it, everyone knows it exists, and tons and tons of people watch it and comment hate comments. I am sad that so many people out there don't realize that they are being tricked, and used like puppets. And now that trickery has very clearly invaded politics. At the very least, more people are paying attention to politics now. But I am disappointed in millions of people out there. We are humans, and we pride ourselves with our genius, and inventions, and complexity. But in the end, the human species' biggest and most dangerous predator is themselves. More humans are killed by fellow humans than humans have been killed by natural disasters. We are even destroying our planet with global warming. But seriously! There is so much we can do! We can build a huge filter in the ocean to create fresh water for those who need it, and we can fix global warming if we really try. We can even make cities that survive natural disasters with ease. Well, we can if people decide that saving the only planet we can get to that we can survive on. I think that we shouldn't have to pay tons of money for parts and workers and land that's needed to save the freaking planet. And billions of people seem too lazy to try to fix the world. If we don't do something, the advanced and "genius" species of humans will all die because of problems that we made and didn't bother to fix. Wouldn't that be ironic? And as far as I know, none of the people running for president will actually try to fix this either.
