Republicans Say the Darndest Things - Executive, Legislative, Judicial and... ?

U.S. Representative 
Markwayne Mullin (R-Oklahoma)

Trying to explain that his party was not responsible for last October's government shutdown:

"This country isn't ran by just one individual. It's ran by four branches, but three branches are in control of this."
I think it's fair to assume that Mr. Mullin does not hold a degree in English.  But looking beyond his cringe worthy confusion of verb tenses, shouldn't someone who is a member of the U.S. Congress have at least a passing acquaintance with how our government is structured?
