f we had 49 real Republicans kamala couldn’t get confirmed, she can’t vote for herself.

It requires 60 Senate votes for confirmation

Ah yes indeed. Brandon's Black liberal woman (not Kamala) will get 60+ without too much difficulty.

Confirmation of the VP requires only “a majority”, not 60. There’s the issue of a potential filibuster, but I suspect that wouldn’t be applied to a confirmation vote.

I think it only takes 51 votes for SCOTUS appointments.
