those who believe in realpolitick believe that political leaders have two main obligations:
first, they should claim that they are advancing the public good.
second, they should also advance their own power and bend rules to their advantage.

which of the following is the closest example of realpolitick?

a congresswoman who, because of pressure from voters in her district, challenges other national leaders.

a president who claims that "national security" concerns allow him to spy on his opponents.

a president who, under threat of impeachment, resigns from office for the "national good" but is later pardoned.

a congressman who relies upon corporate contributions for his campaigns but still appears in city parades.
