Has anyone considered the idea that perhaps most politicians are quite apt at pleasing (manipulating) people and that they simply do what they do best when the audience shrinks to their previous target of convenience?
Absolutely. Great politicians are known for projecting the illusion to each group that their true loyalty is to the current audience, and all the policy moves that audience dislikes were forced by political pressure.
