    I think most people want the candidates they vote for to enact the same policies that they run for. Ain’t nobody voting for somebody going like “I’m voting for this guy based on what he says about foreign affairs, I really hope he changes his mind when he’s in office”.

    Not like changing your position or your mind or your policies aren’t entirely unreasonable. Trump never got us out of Afghanistan, and Biden never got rid of cancer. However, you shouldn’t make promises you can’t keep. Making contradictory promises over the past five or ten years merits negative marks in that department.
