    The relationship between Tom and Trey is getting really bizarre. He should not be spending so much time in close quarters with his brother. Hopefully they find something more meaningful to do.

    The show is focusing more on politics this season, which is wise, but they need to address some realism. It is not clear the party affiliations of any of these individuals, nor the logic behind some of their decisions.
