Politics (from
Greek: πολιτικά,
translit. Politiká,
meaning "affairs of the cities") refers to a set of activities associated with
the governance of a country, or an area. It involves
making decisions that apply to members of a group.[1]
It refers to achieving and exercising positions of governance—organized control
over a human community, particularly a
state.[2]
The academic study focusing on just politics, which is therefore more targeted
than all
Political science, is sometimes referred to as
Politology (not to be confused with
Politicology).
A
political system is a framework which defines acceptable political methods
within a given society. The
history of political thought can be traced back to early antiquity, with
seminal works such as
Plato's
Republic,
Aristotle's
Politics and the works of
Confucius.

Undated: The political positions of
United States President
Donald
Trump (sometimes referred to as Trumpism[1][2])
have elements from across the political spectrum. Trump has proposed sizable
income tax cuts and deregulation consistent with conservative (Republican
Party) policies, along with significant infrastructure investment and
protection for entitlements for the elderly, typically considered liberal (Democratic
Party) policies. His
anti-globalization policies of trade
protectionism and immigration reduction cross party lines.[3]
Trump has said that he is "totally flexible on very, very many issues."[4]
Trump's signature issue is
immigration, especially
illegal immigration,[5]
and in particular building or expanding
a border wall between the U.S. and Mexico.[6]
As of October 2016, Trump's campaign had posted fourteen categories of policy
proposals on his website, which have been since removed.[7]

September 7: Former President Barack Obama
issued a scorching critique of his successor Friday, blasting President Donald
Trump’s pattern of pressuring the Justice Department, his policies and
reminding voters that the economic recovery — one of Trump’s favorite talking
points — began on his watch.
Obama’s speech at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign was delivered
less than two months before midterm elections that could determine the course
of Trump’s presidency. The remarks amounted to a stinging indictment of
political life in the Trump era.

8. He’s not “politically correct.”
He thinks he’s just “telling it like it is.” Sure, if you think that white
males are superior and should keep ruling the world. Instead, he’s just a
hateful asshole who likes to slam Muslims, Mexicans, women, gays, blacks,
transgender people, poor people, and anyone who’s not a fat orange ball of
hate with no innate intelligence or talent who’d be mopping floors if it
wasn’t for daddy’s money.
