Summary

Trump accused Senate Democrats of deliberately delaying the confirmation of his nominees, claiming they are stalling ā€œno matter how good and well qualifiedā€ the candidates are.

Just eight of Trumpā€™s more than 20 nominees have been confirmed by the Senate so far, with many facing intense questioning as Democrats highlight serious concerns.

Trump argued that Democrats are obstructing out of refusal to accept their election loss.

    If neoliberals fought half as hard to ā€œmaintain the status quoā€ as McTurtle fights to burn it all down weā€™d all be a hell of a lot better off.

    It still wouldnā€™t be enough to fix anything, but at least theyā€™d be doing something.
