That’s the stupidity of people holding onto their party so loyally. Politicians are only loyal to those paying the bills, and most citizens are not contributing enough to their “campaigns” to matter. Someone posted the other day about the (likely apocryphal) story of a California statesman who struggled to find a place to live in SF because of high rents and his limited resources. 10-15 years later that same politician is a multi-millionaire while making less than most starting engineers in SF and with none of the equity. It’s astounding how wealthy people get after becoming “public servants.” Ugh.
