In the end, politicians are just people. People with a private life. While some like to share this on social media, others prefer to keep a low profile. Both have their advantages, but possibly also disadvantages. Is the private life of people in politics relevant to you? Why or why not? We look forward to your opinion.
If politicians are open about sharing their personal lives, you get to know their character outside of the political arena. This can increase the public’s trust in them. It also makes them seem more approachable and you may be able to identify with them better. However, this can also lead to people being distracted from political issues and their personal lives being used for political purposes or as fodder for scandal.
What role does the private life of political actors play for you personally? Do you think it affects their professional performance? What is your general opinion about the privacy of people in the public eye? Have you ever changed your opinion about someone in politics based on information about his or her personal life? Feel free to let us know in the comments!
