Trump has kept a lot of his campaign promises. I believe Tulsi would try to do the same. But yes, the politicians are held ransom.
Peter Garrett was the lead singer of the rock band Midnite Oil and an avid environmentalist/advocate for social rights in Australia.
Due to his popularity the Australian labor party (ALP) recruited him as a sitting politician. Overnight he was transformed from a social activist to speaking with a "fork tongue" on issues he once championed.
He was ultimately investigated for incompetence (pink batts roof insulation scandal) and eventually left politics in disgrace
