I do believe we have to give credit where credit is due. The people selected by POTUS Trump, sans Gaetz, have or are being approved for their Cabinet positions. Every one of them, sans Gaetz and it has occurred about has quickly as we could hope.
Without saying too much or drawing attention to himself, Senator Thune obviously gets a lot of credit for pulling the GOP Senators together and getting the job done. Senator Thune certainly has my respect, and I admire his approach, which is directly opposite of his nemisis, Chucky Schumer.
He’s better than Cecil Turtle was thus far, I’ll give you that.
Have to agree, this came out much better than I first feared they would.
We know there were “shy Trump voters” - maybe there are shy Senators too who may not make a lot of noise about it but do the right thing when the votes are cast.
The people of South Dakota deserve credit for pressuring Thune to do the right thing.
Thune did a good job, but just remember who he was replacing.
Newt was the master.
Blechh
Trump is in charge of
These cretins know the real outcome of the election and that Kamala and Dems got way way way fewer votes than they pretend. And they know who else knows that
We are in charge. Not Thune.
Too early in the game. Will reserve thumbs up for the next few years.
Yes, when I first heard he was the Majority Leader, I was not enthused at all. Time will tell but, so far so good!!
If Thune performs as well with getting President Trump’s Federal Judges confirmed, he will deserve praise.
Fine Thuned.
I admit I was totally wrong on him. He’s doing a great job.
There’s going to be battles over the next 4 years that he will fail to deliver and will deserve criticism, for now, we should applaud his efforts to get Trump’s nominees approved.
He is a big boy. He can get his trophy after he completes the whole game.

If Thune in any way hinders the Trump agenda over the next two years, he will be primaried out. After that, it’s anyone’s guess as to what he will do.
Newt was great, no doubt, but he wasn’t a Senator.
Agree.
giving him credit for doing was he was elected to do?
I suppose such accolades make sense for the RINOs
We’ve won some big battles....we still have to win the war.
We’ll see.
I think the memory of Tom Dashle is nipping at his heels.
