Pretty much. The first half of this election they were almost an issue... now they're so common place that the process is proforma: Embarressing social media post revealed - candidate steps down - media reports candidate steps down - nobody cares the day after.
Eventually one of two things will happen, either parties will install social media history investigations into the nomination process and weed those people out or they'll become so common place that they'll no longer be newsworthy and we'll stop hearing about them.
