The text discusses the nature of modern political narratives, particularly how certain investigations can spiral into obsessive coverage. The author suggests that both sides of the political spectrum engage in creating conspiracies and narratives that dominate public discourse.
These conspiracies function similarly to those previously leveled against politicians, creating a continuous cycle of inquiries and media attention. The author compares this to past Republican claims against Democrats, highlighting how politics has turned into a "blood-sport," aimed at undermining individuals and their careers.
