(32,640 posts)So, any Democratic official that does what ***every single politician*** who has served for more than a few years has done at one time or another - Appease a lobby/industry or another over something that someone thinks is "the nation's well being."
Or changing their support for something because their constituents want something different.
So, in your world -
No good or moral politician chooses expediency over something that someone somewhere is convinced is "the nation's well being."
And there is always a clear choice between the "nation's well being," and "corrupt expediency" and never, ever a decision between "bad for the nation's well being" and "worse for the nation's well being." It's always, black or white, good or evil, and compromise is corruption.
Got it. You could never, ever support a party or politician that has compromised.
Every decision that a politician makes is as clear and uncomplicated as "choosing prison slavery" over "not choosing prison slavery."
Do you picture politicians twirling mustaches while they dream of destroying the earth?
Just out of curiosity - do you drive a car?
