I disagree. I dont disagree this is true but i dont think its the main reason for poor leadership. I think that has more to do with greed and power politics. Incredibly powerful people and groups (billionaires, superpacs, other politicians) largely choose who gets put in significant leadership positions. They'll put in people who will "play the game" and made token appeals to the masses but largely work towards the interests of themselves and their donors/people pulling the strings.
Its not that theyre afraid to make unpopular decisions as much as they dont really care, because people who do care seldom get into those positions
