Master Your Political Circus Survival Guide
Identify the Circus Acts
First step in your political circus survival guide: spot the performers. You’ve got high-wire acrobats walking the tightrope between scandal and re-election, strongmen lifting heavy lobbyist checks, and clowns… well, they’re everywhere.
As Elongated Muskrat, our resident billionaire dreamer, puts it: “It’s like having a personal army of circus freaks. If I want their opinion, I’ll give it to them!”

Surviving the Spectacle
Now that you can identify the acts, here’s your ultimate political circus survival guide:
1. Bring popcorn and a strong liver – you’ll need both to stomach this show.
2. Learn to juggle facts, alternative facts, and “fake news” – it’s a essential skill in this three-ring madhouse.
3. Develop skin thicker than a rhino hide wrapped in kevlar – you’ll need it to withstand the constant barrage of toxic tweets and campaign promises.
As our Master of Marketing Madness, March E. Tellerman, eloquently slurs: “We’re like the Wild West of political circuses, baby! Only with less gunpowder and probably more discourse before things get really off the rails.”
Remember, with this political circus survival guide and Politico as your trusty companion, you’ll navigate the big top of Washington like a pro. Just don’t forget your clown nose – you might need to blend in!
