When democracy is real, the commanding people delegates the function of leading to someone who receives it, to someone who owes their position. In fact, in the societies that have managed to advance and that stand out for their high standards of living, the rulers have to “tread carefully” and act with respect and transparency before the ruling people.
That is why when any slip is discovered, the first thing that is done is to resign from office. Even when the offense is very serious, what is customary is also to resign from the leadership position that he may have in the party that nominated him, and possibly even to resign from political activity.
In our homes, those who hold public office are still often deified. We still give the impression of not having “discovered” that assuming them as servers is what really helps to choose well, those who have real endorsements to drive progress.
