In her new book, Kamala Harris insists she only lost the election because she didn’t have enough time. But she accidentally demonstrates the real reason: she’s a terrible politician.
You’re confusing being a good politician with being a good leader or representative. Being a politician is all about winning elections. The man can’t lead the country worth a shit, but he can get elected.
No what you are describing isn’t even really a politician, but just a demagogue.
A demagogue makes promises to win an election, a politician work to deliver on the promises, and help make things better.
A politician is a person who participates in policy-making processes
Winning an election is only a means to become a politician, not the end.
Politicians make decisions, and influence the formulation of public policy.
Exactly the parts I described as determining whether a politician is good or bad.
A more formal definition:
Politician: 1: a person experienced in the art or science of government especially: one actively engaged in conducting the business of a government. 2a : a person engaged in party politics as a profession.[1]
So contrary to what you claim, not at all about campaigning or election by any definition, but the actual work that is done AFTER an election.
