Blaming a temporary administration for the problem gives them a new enemy every cycle, keeping you distracted from the larger issues and problems.

The administration may be temporary, but they have control of our military, our weapons, and our international policy. They have influence over slow-moving change in the country, and direct impact on faster changes via executive orders.

Yes, there are are deep systemic issues that go beyond the temporary leadership, and yes, those are important. But that doesn't mean the leadership should not be a concern of ours.
