Yes, I know he ultimately is responsible for his staff and he says that himself many times.

But making it sound like he pressed the damned buttons himself, and did it wrong, ....

might be the fact that he can never ever do anything right, ever. In fact, when he ties his right shoelace, he crosses his foot over so it's really not 'right', but left of his left.

Reminds me of a SNL skit in which an old lady is sitting on her porch. When the kids accidentally hit a ball on her property, she confiscates it yelling, "It's mine now!"
