We can try a criminal case with the slimmest possible amount of information. Why is bad faith action not criminal in modern democracy. It amounts to fraud of the highest degree. To me the most blatant form is those elected representatives who changed political party after election, but includes any elected official acting contrary to the platform they were elected on.
Democracy cannot survive this kind of fraud.

I think elected officials, especially lawmakers, should be criminally liable for betraying the best interest of their constituents as laid out during their campaign.
How could this go wrong?
I mean, isn’t that kind of what elections are for?
Here, one of our Representatives kind of lost the plot:

He got primaried and bounced out:
By someone who would go on to lose to a Republican. :(
A Republican who is now a Trump nominee. :(
