I get this, but I'm sorry. I want Vivek to get the Treasury Secretary job, so he can clean house at the SEC and CFTC.
That's precisely what needs to happen. Because we need to see him in action and see how Vivek votes. Same thing for Lake. If they do well, then move them up and give them a chance at bigger things.
There is no chance any of those 3 Senators hold up a nominee. This is paranoia.Massively important race. Pubs currently have 52 in the Senate.
And there are 3 RINOs, McConnell, Murkowski and Collins. So we need to get to 54 to have a 'RINO-proof' majority.
It looks like Sam Collins and Mike McCormick in NV and PA will both win. So we need 2 of these last 3 races, at least. All 3 would be better.
I don't think folks understand how important it is to hit at least 54 in the Senate: With that number, any Trump appointment to his administration or any Federal Judge nomination (including SCOTUS), flies through without any issue.
It literally took Trump 18 months in his first term to fill all his appointments due to the Senate delaying the process.There is no chance any of those 3 Senators hold up a nominee. This is paranoia.
Isn’t the VP the President of the Senate (and a vote)?It literally took Trump 18 months in his first term to fill all his appointments due to the Senate delaying the process.

If I remember correctly, pubs had either 51 or 52 in 2016, but three of those were Mittens, Collins and Murkowski. IIRC, it took them over a year to approve freaking Ben Carson.Isn’t the VP the President of the Senate (and a vote)?
The appointments go through Senate so they would be the drag. Kari looks to be closing strong so hopefully we can hit at least 54 then it shouldn't be an issue.With Trump’s self funded early transition team, I think he has learned a lesson.
If any appointment drags on at the start of this term it almost has to be 100% on the Senate, and I don’t see that happening with these results.
Don't forget Mr. Keating 5 and McConnel were working against Trump along with Paul Ryan in the House.If I remember correctly, pubs had either 51 or 52 in 2016, but three of those were Mittens, Collins and Murkowski. IIRC, it took them over a year to approve freaking Ben Carson.
I will give the Turtle partial credit, he hammered through Trump's judge appointments like a champ. But the second he won re-election and they stole 2020 from Trump, he threw him under the bus.Don't forget Mr. Keating 5 and McConnel were working against Trump along with Paul Ryan in the House.

Agreed Vivek would be absolutely wasting his time and talents in the senate. He definitely needs to get somewhere that his knowledge and expertise can effect change and clean up the "experts" messes.I get this, but I'm sorry. I want Vivek to get the Treasury Secretary job, so he can clean house at the SEC and CFTC.
I'm sorry, but this whole fvcking thing stinks to high heaven.Kari now down by 52k votes with roughly a million votes left to count. Percentages seem to really be favoring her on recent dumps.
Kari and Kamala had almost the exact same number of votes. It's insane.I'm sorry, but this whole fvcking thing stinks to high heaven.
You're telling me tens of thousands of people split the Trump ticket? She's the Trumpiest candidate in the country.
And we're also being told a ton of ballots for Senate were cast with no POTUS selection.
The most confusing part about this obvious cheating is why did they only cheat on the Senate race?
I wonder if the RNC poll watchers have left?I'm sorry, but this whole fvcking thing stinks to high heaven.
