no they aren't, some have protagonists that you like and for whom you have empathy.
Maybe some of those that are intended to be fiction might, but those intended to be non-fiction but miss their aim are all alike.
Once Upon A Time.....
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown

I love this comedy of historical fiction, especially the First Act - entitled "If"...a tidbit of pure fiction, itself, that really sets the tone for the rest of this story's history.

I'll second the recommendation on the book "Shattered". Am reading it now.
The DEMs were terrified that the Wikileaks email dump (showing the DNC working against Sanders) would explode the DEM convention on national TV.
Debbie Wasserman-Schultz was furious. Clinton came to Florida to announce her VP choice (scary clown guy Tim Kaine) and DWS wanted a spot on the stage. They wouldn't let her near Clinton because of all the uproar.

Her account of the debate is about as accurate as her recollections of taking sniper fire in Bosnia.
She is the one who actually walked over to Trump's side of the stage and put herself in front of him. They were separated by at least 4-5 feet when she supposedly felt him breathing down her neck.
See for yourself starting just after 25:00 in the video below:

Does anyone really care about this old shoe? Lordy, please go away. Retire on that Foundation money. Find some happiness. Leave the rest of us be.

As long as the media will cover her, she'll be around to spew lies until the day she dies.
Of all the enemies the American citizen faces, the Democrat Party is the very worst.
