I 100% agree, though I wish this doubt and non-excuse would be applied unilaterally over all political parties, bureaucracies, and NGO. Trusting someone merely because what they said makes butterflies bubble in our spleen, or worse; Trusting them because of the letter in parentheses appended to their name (R/D), is what got us to this point.

Actions count, and in the case of politics, that means what the laws DO -the actual application and implementation, which is usually entirely glossed over by most voters, and just blamed on the other guy.

Don't listen to politicians; They are paid to lie. Listen to your fellow citizens, who are like you forced to deal with this mess, and are pitted against each other by liars and thieves.

Your fellow citizens are liars too, and refuse to take responsability for their choices and actions - such as who they voted for.
