Political Quotes

“since Inauguration Day, the Senate has been slow making its way through confirming Cabinet Secretaries. Democrats, it seems, have used just about every trick in the book to try to slow down the process. There are Democrats in the Senate who are delaying things even when other Democrats in the Senate support the person who has actually been nominated by the President. (Mr. YOUNG assumed the Chair.) Remember when President Obama took office, Republicans were far more willing to let the President have the team he wanted. He had won the election and was entitled to his Cabinet. We are now 39 days into President Trump's term, and the Senate has confirmed now 17 of his nominees--17 over 39 days. President Obama got 20 of his people confirmed in the first 9 days. It does seem the more the Democrats delay, the more the American people will see the Democrats are just being childish and spiteful.”
