Exactly. Those in the highest positions of power should damn well have criticism. The argument otherwise seems to imply that accountability and transparency have no place in American politics
It's funny how the tribalism of those demanding unwavering support of The Chief is very much a walk back from the spirit of Democracy ("they represent us") and into Monarchy ("we owe fealty to them").
The less Democratic a country is - and hence the less representative its leaders are - the worse this shit is.
