Well that's the neat part! They campaign on how the government doesn't work - then in an effort to "streamline" they reduce taxes/funding for things like roads and bridges. The infra starts crumbling but instead of constituents wanting more funding, they take the crumbling info as evidence of the mismanagement, and just claim the government sucks at what it does.
At least, that's how it is in Missouri.
