Many politicians answer to social media.

  • Some of them confuse social media for the real world (entertainment execs do - why not politicians?).

  • For the new generation, social media asspats may be the end goal.

  • Political machines are made of tiny people who may not be interested in success, only in keeping their job. "We were following social media trends" may be a good excuse for failure.
