They’re being childish and throwing temper tantrums who care more about their bruised egos and crowd mentality than for the country. How embarrassing.
This is now really easy. Trump can call out by name all congress critters that didn’t support his choices. This will put each democrat in peril in the 18 election cycle.
This is nothing more than jealousy at its finest. These legislators probably told on other classmates to the teacher when they were in school. Childish, unpatriotic, self-serving, the list goes on.
Never started for the Dems, and certainly will not end with the GOP.
Will the Media call the Vote Bipartisan if ONE Democrat Votes for Trump’s Nominees or it that only reserved for when a Republican defects?
Paging Joe Manchin, paging Joe Manchin, please pickup the save your A$$ in your 2018 Reelection White Courtesy Phone.
President Trump is still one of the very few real Republican men in in DC.
And it wont change a thing, as they will all still be confirmed. Try again Wash Post.
A Democrat in a “red” state would rather be defeated in 2018 than defer to Trump on much of anything. It’s like the old cigarette advertisement: “Us Tareyton smokers would rather fight than switch!”

YA ..... SO ?
This means there is no longer a moderate democrat. They are playing to their base rioters. Good news for us, because normal people will vote for us.
One might conclude that bodes well for the US Senate staying Republican. If only we can drain that swamp, including getting some fake Republicans primaried.
They’ve already voted no on all of them thus far.
This is war.
What I’d like to see if they don’t approve DeVos is don’t appoint anyone and instead give money to the states as bloc grants. That’ll end Common Core, if the states don’t have to jump through all those hoops to get federal money.
They want to loose even MORE seats in the Senate and the House of Congress. They are NOT listening to their constituents who voted in November.
Their immaturity is breathtaking. But it seems the collective maturity of adult Americans has hit an all time low anyway.
House and Senate Democrats to occupy the Washington Mall and hold their respective breaths until they turn blue! Major Media coverage will record the event!
“Virtually all Democratic senators are expected to vote against President Trumps picks to lead the departments of Education, Justice, Health and Human Services, Labor and Treasury and his top budget nominee a historic rebuke of a first-term presidents top Cabinet nominees.”
Well, if Trump had any illusion that he could work with the Dims, at least insofar as it involves a pro-America agenda, he should now be disabused of that notion. It’s all-out warfare after only a couple of weeks in office. Time for Trump to double down, triple down, quadruple down.
“While the inaugural address was being delivered from this place, devoted altogether to saving the Union without war, insurgent agents were in the city seeking to destroy it without warseeking to dissolve the Union and divide effects by negotiation.
Both parties deprecated war, but one of them would make war rather than let the nation survive, and the other would accept war rather than let it perish, and the war came.”
Abraham Lincoln - Inaugural Address, March 14, 1865
Now that the Democrats have revealed their naked political strategy there is no reason for the GOP to hold back from going totally nuclear on ALL issues that are to come on for consideration before the Senate. Then, right before the 2018 elections they can change the rules back, just in case the elections don’t go well...
