I feel bitter about American politics.

Are you bitter about American politics this much (extending fingers), this much (extending hands slightly), or thiiiiiis much (extending hands broadly)?

Also, if your bitterness about American politics were a leafy green vegetable, which one would it be? Brussel sprouts? Spinach?
