Yeah, I mean look at Cuomo for mayor. Keeping around provably corrupt politicians became more common most notably with Donald Trump but it applies now to both parties.
Cuomo shouldn’t be able to run for dog catcher after his actions, and yet he’s there at the top of the polls and getting endorsements from other establishment figures.
Absolutely, and I truly believe it all comes back to money in politics. When money equals speech, money is represented, not the people. It’s nothing new & always been a problem, but Citizens United really accelerated it.
The fact that RFK jr and all his bullshit went unchallenged, and he could have landed in either party is the real problem.
Trump and Biden were never seriously challenged either.
The American political landscape is completely broken.

Yet he’s still winning in the polls… There are millions of people in NYC who are still willing to vote for him because of name recognition.
