I agree; and I personally believe that the fault is with all the voters. All the voters need to do better next time.

There is potential to put yourself in an unmovable situation when you deny the capacity for individuals to find fault in, and correct, themselves. When they're all "special snowflakes incapable of fault, for whom the horrible and evil politicians must serve to attain their vote" you may set yourself up for either a failing relationship, or lies. Contrary to what one might expect, saying "I've heard the opinions of others, and I think I was wrong about X" is not a social death sentence. I've said it online before, and others need to be ready to do the same.

Maybe JFK expressed that thought better than I can.
