Also, none of Trump's personal selections could get confirmed by Congress, so Trump had no choice but to appoint Conservative-hating neo-Marxists, and hope for the best.

How many of Trump's nominees were actually rejected by the Senate? I can't think of many, to be honest.

IIRC many (most?) of Trump's nominees had to wait for 30 legislative days for the Senate to take a vote on them. This was according to Senate rules even though Republicans had a majority in the Senate. Biden seemed to have his cabinet in office much faster.

It often took months, even years, for a person to go from accepting a nomination until that vote. People who accepted a Trump nomination had their lives, and the lives of their families, turned inside out to find anything that the evil Dems could publish about them ... true, false or rumor.

The Washington swamp cares only for itself and its power. Disgusting

Sarcasm...

Whenever I criticized Trump's appointments for not being Conservatives, several Q-bots would show up and explain that Conservatives could not win a majority vote in the Senate.

My solution - leave the job unfilled, and make the Deep State come to the Oval Office every time they needed an executive decision or signature.

Instead, Trump just kept Obama people in their old jobs or promoted Deep State lifers.
