Australian here: What Elise Stefanik (and others are doing) is what David Pakman labelled "toxic sport politics" which is where a politician DOES NOT care at all about what they are saying. All they care about is what will score POLITICAL POINTS right at this instant in the current news cycle and enable them to claim some sort of political victory. Although it might be most visible in America it is NOT simply an American phenomenon. We see the same sort of garbage from our politicians here in Australia and see it in other nations via the news. The rhetoric is similar, the behavior is similar, and the lack of caring at all about the consequences is similar and most importantly these sorts of politicians DO NOT CARE about the actual job they were elected for which is run the country (or state, or city or town) they were elected to run. I hear reports all the time how the current US House of Representatives has passed a record LOW number of bills and this its not simply low but less than 1/2 the previous record. This is NOT isolated to America either. We have the same sort of issues here, where promises to take things from policy to actions and/or legislation simply never happens. Go look at the complete disaster that Brexit has become for the British people. The failure of our political parties should be one of the most pressing issues across the entire Western Democratic World. At its core is the insane influence peddling of the super wealthy. Thom Hartman reported a while back that someone analysed the funding from billionaires in the 2022 American Midterms. America has over 500 Billionaires (by some reports). They collectively spent over $900 Million supporting candidates and of that money over $800 Million came from a small group of about 25 people. Here in Australia we less than 1/13th the population of America and as such have fewer billionaires. But our super wealthy and/or their companies have learned from your super wealthy on HOW TO INFLUENCE POLITICS. So we too have influential think tanks that they fund and other organisations that peddle various causes. I keep seeing here on YouTube short blurbs that support various mining interests and its pitched as if we all benefit. Notably Glencore the Swiss based multinational is one of those peddling political influence campaigns. Glencore might be Swiss but it was founded by American Billionaire Marc Rich who was pardoned (by Bill Clinton) for tax evasion, wire fraud, racketeering, and sanction busting. I would also warn any American about complaining about foreign influence to any British person. Many of them know the disastrous Brexit vote was influenced by the work of Cambridge Analytica which was funded by American Billionaire Robert Mercer. This is the major problem of our time. Garbage politicians only interested in toxic sport politics who are funded by the super wealthy to keep our governments from functioning properly.
