There is no accountability among a civically illiterate voter base. Most people (and even some elected officials) don't even know the three branches of government. Those same people are obsessed with making accusations of corruption, while being oblivious to ethical violations committed by the officials they vote for.
These days when people make accusations of corruption without specific details I just assume they were exposed to lead as children. Or they listen to Alex Jones, but that Venn diagram is probably a circle.
