It’s time for Congress to confirm Donald Trump’s nominees for his cabinet, but Democrats in both houses of the legislature are doing their best to make sure that doesn’t happen.
With many vowing to oppose Trump on virtually everything he proposes, it is no surprise that liberals are refusing to even countenance voting for any of the people he appoints to his administration. Like the Republican president-elect himself, they view them as inherently toxic and thus to be opposed on principle. In fact, the only principle that the left seems to have left (no pun intended) these days is thwarting Trump at every turn.
And while one can indeed argue for or against Trump’s nominees on the basis of their qualifications and positions, progressives are interested in dismissing them merely on account of being tied to Trump, something that makes said individuals suspect in their eyes.

I.would not answer that bitch
If there’s one thing I’ve noticed- if they are questioning someone else about something, they are usually doing it themselves. Keep an eye on her.
Get rid of that worthless piece of sh$t. Vote her out next time. F**E INDIAN
Exactly! They have destroyed their own party and keep doing it by whining and crying about every little thing. Instead of bashing Trump 24/7 they need to think about how they will ever be relevant in future elections. Because after this past one, things aren’t looking so good. A democrat will never be in the Oval Office again, not for a very long time. And they know it.
She is absolutely embarrassing. How do we have people like this running our government. People like her is why we need term limits. And she gets paid 425,000 to teach a class at Harvard. I couldn’t imagine listening to her lectures every week. I would have to go on suicide watch.
Anyone rich in politics, and politics alone is a crook
First just because it’s what you do doesn’t me an everyone does it. Second I think Ben Carson is a very honest and honorable man and to ask that question of him is insulting. Third I don’t think PRESIDENT TRUMP is in need of that money since he funded his own campaign and let’s see isn’t he foregoing a salary as president. Why don’t you and the rest of congress and Senate do the same. Or is that how you make your money by funneling into your own business since you seem to know a lot about it. Lets investigate you.
Trump isn’t getting payed ~ what’s her problem ~ sick illness
He isn’t like you.
What a stupid question maybe Carson should ask you if your going to give back the grant money from the government you took saying you where a indian (native american)
