Hey, let's be fair: it's gotta be pretty hard to try and balance their actual practice of maximizing what's good for themselves and only about 1% of the population, with trying to maintain the impression that they represent the interest of the broader electorate.

One has to at least appreciate the complexity of constantly maintaining a "Hey, look here!" ideological circus number running whilst they help a few pick the pockets of the rest.
