I’m not sure that’s true in general. I see many people do the polar opposite: spout “every politician is the same, they’re all crooks”. Which isn’t helpful either.

Could be a generational or cultural thing, though.

I mean, you're both probably correct.

In the US a huge portion of the population doesn't vote, I would expect those that think every politician is a crook.

The other side that does vote thinks the other politician lies and their politician is the good one.

I have no doubt both camps exist, I’m only questioning it’s (to quote above) the majority. That’s why I said I don’t think it’s true in general.

Many mix up what politicians want to do with what they can do.
