I'm confused here. Your saying because he supported the current administration he shouldn't still hold them accountable? Please explain.

No because constantly pointing the finger elsewhere doesnt solve anything....

Taking action solves issues, not pointing of fingers.....

Is he pointing the finger elsewhere? To me it looks like he's addressing issues that are not being dealt with within Congress.

Certainly you don't think he is for every person in Congress?

No, because that deflects from the real issue.

So he should say I am sorry I voted for this person because he didn't vote for this, but he did vote for this and this and half of that?

I understand the real issue, but it seems the easy way out for most is to shoot the messenger and kill off all credibility negating the real focus.
