I would imagine all politicians have always been judged similarly:
The ones who represent me are highly skilled, very experienced, and have the seniority to ensure my hometown gets it’s fair share,
The ones who represent you are lazy, entitled scammers who should be prevented from fleecing my hometown by the imposition of term limits.
Maybe 15 to 30 years ago. These days it seems more like:
"The ones who represent me give me feelings of schadenfreude over how they deal with the other party and people"
"The ones who represent you give me feelings of angst over how my party is treated"
I think I just got called out as elderly, but I can’t point to anything that you said that was false. Well put.
