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.
See video of Congress grilling HUD nominee Ben Carson on the next page:
Think she had stroke getting senile
Soros probably gave her money as well…
Apparently that’s what she would do; why else would she even think of such a thing?
She definitely needs to go; I can’t stand her shrill voice, or her angry face…
She has to have a larcenous mind to think of this…
She gets paid for doing nothing. ….
I don’t know how he keeps a straight face. That’s a Democrat thing!
I am waiting for something sensible to come out of Warren’s mouth. It is a good thing I am not holding my breath.
This woman is nuts. She needs the psyche ward not the united states Senate. Ben Carson is a perfect choice.
Trump is not the thief that all the others in government are. Asking it Trump is a thief shows there are thieves.
