The political benefit of a suggestion, position, action, event, legislation, characteristic or movement is its tendency to give a relative advantage to one political party, or political side or person.
Virtually everything has a political benefit because almost nothing impacts both sides precisely the same. For example, a declining economy typically has a political benefit for the party not in control of the presidency.
Assessing the political benefit is essential to understanding the motivation for an action or statement.
