Interesting post and stat...

In my opinion I only think RFK is in trouble (but not according to betting markets). This is based on how his first hearing went (he will get not one Dem as they all went after him?) and Cassidy's recent comments. This leaves him at the whims of McConnell, Collins and the witch from Alaska

He might need the vice president like Hesgeth.

There is a lot of tough talk in the press so we'll see how it pans out. It seems a president usually gets his way although you can never underestimate the senate RINOs.

Anyone got any thoughts on this week?

Republicans control 53 seats in the Senate. When you think about it, it's absolutely absurd that any of Trump's nominees are in trouble.

RFK Jr. is the most embattled nominee, and he is VERY popular. Sen. Cassidy is going to get himself primaried and I for one will love to see him walk out of Congress and laugh in his face if he pulls any more ****.

Cassidy doesn’t want RFK to be open to vaccinations or acknowledge some or even most vaccines are safe. He wants him to act as an anti-science, unthinking automaton and blindly declare all vaccines are safe. Only a God-damned fool would blindly declare every member of any class of objects is safe. RFK’s JOB is to make sure they are.

Tulsi: Exam went well. Confirmed.
Patel: Exam went superb. Confirmed.
RFK: Iffy. 50/50. I’m a little worried about him anyways, as a conservative.

My hope is that Cassidy will bail him out.

If not, Trump needs to give RFK his year at recess and nominate someone who is harder core.

Cassidy is holding out for a promise that Trump wonโ€™t back a challenger. Trump should not make that deal.

I believe RFK is owed confirmation from ALL Republicans. It took a lot of courage to join Trump and MAGA. His family has attacked him, democrats hate him...and I really believe he brought a LOT of votes to MAGA. He is very respected in the medical community and has brought MAJOR attention to the poisonous foods we have been eating. JMO
