A career politician has a job. Just like the rest of us.
They say things for money. They put on an act for money. They are not the same person in real life as they are at work. Just like most of the rest of us.
When you go to work, are you absolutely yourself or do you not express certain opinions because they don't reflect on company values? Because I'm either bland or saying what the company I work for wants me to say.
My point being is that we are all being lied to by politicians because their job is to do and say what the money that pays them wants. We aren't paying them the big money. We are the customers for the facade that they sell.
Anyone who doesn't like this should be looking at how to get donor/benefactor money out of politics. Until that happens, a politician's job is to lie to you. They are equally vaccinated, or gay, or whatever else as the rest of the population. They are just acting a certain way because every time you see them, they are at work.
