Isn't that like... what all politics are? Doing things so you get re-elected?

I mean, I know the GOP has convinced half the country that good politics is to beat you with a baseball bat, take the money from your wallet and give it to some billionaire, but this argument of "you're just buying votes by doing things that people need" has always confused the fuck out of me as missing the entire point.
