Some of them might have been aligned with their voters years ago, but now it's just a brand they built. There's also a whole bunch of Col. Cathcarts from Catch-22. No actual principles, and paralyzed into inaction because they can't predict how people will react. Feather in the cap or a black eye?

Venting is cathartic but it's also a way that you can normalize irrational complaints. It's the difference between letting off steam about problems that are out of your control vs complaining about the unpleasant things that make what you want possible.
