The Good Fight is not an anti-Trump rant. No reasonable person can listen to the constant Trump derangement dialogue and take it seriously. And it certainly doesn't make the Democrats look good with all their underhanded maneuvering, hackneyed rhetoric and melodramatic politics. However, this is Chicago, probably the most entrenched Democrat machine in the country. Even the Republicans are Democrats. An eager-beaver Chicago law firm needs to be aggressively pro-Democrat and pro-local politics, not matter how dystopian that may seem outside of the state of Illinois. Ridley Scott and his cast and crew are taking on the ridiculousness of American politics. And to appreciate this show, one must realize that. The performances are outstanding and the production values are first class. Many actors and artists have set their personal politics aside and are turning in even-handed (yes, fair and balanced) renderings of today's political atmosphere. I hope CBS is planning to keep this show for some time to come.

Warning: Spoilers
The show needs to take a step back from politics. It was far too over the top this week, even if it did produce a good episode.
This was almost Marissa-centric in premise, but it worked. She wasn't one of my favorites on The Good Wife by any stretch, but slowly but surely she has become more likable on this spinoff.
Just give on Trump. The legal case was much more entertaining this week.

Many folks will be, or were, upset at the obvious MSM fake news lies, and Hollywood swears to it BS. The problem is though - an over zealous attempt shows just how desperate the left wing is, and the extremes they'll go to. It's all rather sad really - I loved the first season of this show. Too bad they sank so far so fast.
