Promises! Promises! Promises! All bad politicians do is to make election promises and when they got elected all they got to do is to sleep on their job. Bad politicians only fools the public and they are no good in office wasting the tax payers moneys.

As long as you know how to charm listerners with your talk, you can get their vote... I think I lost my trust in politicians long time ago.

@magnumopus I'm not sure. Good ones seem to be shadowed by bad ones.
And bad ones seem to be louder than the good ones too.

They don't even make promises anymore as much as tell you how evil "the other person" is. I think that was part of the appeal of Trump: he outlined what he planned on doing, instead of the general "[candidate's name] has a plan to (whatever)."
There's an old saying: power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely. I think part of the US's problem is that our politicians are two sides of the same coin. A power-hungry Democrat or a power-hungry Republican is still a power-hungry threat to the people who elected them.

@FourWalls That's straight to the point observation.
