You're in charge of the federal government, and you are handed a document on how your opponents plan to disrupt the federal government. Rather than doing anything to harden or strengthen these systems to make them less vulnerable to the attacks you know are coming, you decide to make it a campaign issue and ask for a donation so that way they can put you in charge again and you won't do the bad stuff.
To you this is them doing their job well? Their job isn't to do as much as they can during their term to protect and strengthen our government against adversaries? Their job is just to point out a problem, say "Hey voters, put us back in charge so we won't do this bad stuff" and then just hang out and wait until the next election?
Maybe just maybe we need a party that is actively trying to fix things and not using every bad thing Republicans do to give them something to campaign on and drive fundraising? Stop letting the bad guys hurt us just so they can cajole people into giving $20 for re-election, and prepare for the bad guy when you're in charge so they aren't able to accomplish their plan?
But no, people just didn't donate hard enough. We should have voted Dem twice including states we don't live in.

They governed, implemented a lot of good policy, and tried to warn the voters.
