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.

Hatefulness be your name. Slither away.

Just cause you and your liberal buddies would do it.?

This lady is not smart!!
Why is warran even allowed to ask questions?

What a stupid question. This woman is dumb like a box of rocks.
Warren is as bad as Pelosi. These two need to go!
Because of her and the other democrats, they set up rules for lending and people lost their homes over $1.00. She bought a bunch of these homes and flipped them for profit.
