Not really. There are literally millions of people who are trying to deflect blame away from the guy they voted for and pin it on those that don't even represent them.

If, in the final analysis, it turns out that the mayor of Nola failed because he appointed unqualified cronies to important public safety positions, he should be tried for criminal negligence and manslaughter.
If, in the final analysis, it turns out that the governor of LA failed because she appointed unqualified cronies to important public safety positions, she should be tried for criminal negligence and manslaughter.
If, in the final analysis, it turns out that the president, uh wait, we already know why FEMA failed.
