Think more British people than Americans are cynical about politicians, i'm one of those who thinks they're selected rather than elected. Truly believe the world is currently in the power of the evil ones and God will sort it out when the time is right.
The last politician i had any faith in here is Jeremy Corbyn but knew somebody like him would never get to be Prime Minister. Before him, think i only had liking/some trust for Tony Benn and Michael Foot, definitely something of a social justice warrior and peacenik.
Trump and Putin are two politicians i have some liking for, Trump has said some things which earn my respect and Putin is exceptionally intelligent, with some seeming integrity. However, nothing will convince me they aren't bought and paid for, think hell will freeze over before any politician who isn't can be elected to power in major nations and this has been happening for a few decades at least.
