I know they all play for the same team and all, but damn…

If they weren't on the team, they wouldn't be allowed to play. They can have rivalries, but most of them are getting rich off of the "politician" gig. The people they supposedly represent are basically cattle to be managed. People who manage cattle certainly don't want to cause them to stampede, but only because it cuts into profits and makes the job harder. Doesn't help that a huge percentage of people act like cattle with no additional prompting.
