Rep. Luke Messer (R., Ind.) criticized President Obama on Monday's "The Daily Rundown" for not using his platform to lead the debate on entitlement reform, echoing words from Sen. Bob Corker (R., Tenn.) on Fox News Sunday.

"The president's been very active on gun control and the fact that he believes in having press conferences and pep rallies about that," Messer said. "He's been very active on the fact that he thinks we need to replace the sequester. Frankly, through his inaugural address and his State of the Union, he's missed opportunities to help the American people understand that we have real challenges going forward on Social Security and Medicare."
