By "these days" you mean twenty-one (21) months before the election that over one billion dollars is going to be spent on to tell us how bad the other side is and that is why the party saying the other side is bad should be the party in charge.
In other words, politics ...
Merriam-Webster said it best:
( the art or science concerned with winning and holding control over a government)

No. In the last number of years since September 11, 2001. Even the weather channel contributes to the fear mongering with their it could happen tomorrow series. Seems like everyone is preying on peoples anxiety, and we, collectively allow it.
Seems there is a lot of money and gov't in fear.
