fricking why? Since when has advise and consent ever been anything other than a rubber stamp? I bet without looking it up you couldn't name 3 failed picks in the last 20 years
trump was elected to take a wrecking ball to the travesty that is our current government, that's what all of these picks are. He's doing exactly what he was elected to do. This is what democracy looks like folx.
