To some extent, but he knew when to "spin" congress for money. Valley Forge is a perfect example. The troops were well fed, warm, and clothed that winter in 1776, but he wrote to congress that supplies were needed. The Park Service has,proven that his report to congress was not true. Washington also had affairs with officer's wives that were in his command and may have fathered a child with a slave ( this is not totally proven ). He also disliked Adams and even though he was Vice President he was ignored by Washington.
