39% of my nominations, including Diplomats to foreign lands, have not been confirmed due to Democrat obstruction and delay. At this rate, it would take more than 7 years before I am allowed to have these great people start working. Never happened before. Disgraceful!

(16,254 posts)2. Why bother to confirm them when you just fire them a few weeks later.
Did it ever occur to you that your appointees generally have no clue about the department they are to run? Example after example can be easily named, in the event you forget who you appointed. In fact, many of them are the opposite choices to bring about growth and progress in that department. If we could, we would have fired you a long time ago and avoided all this fiasco, but it seems we have to wait until the proof has been brought forth for public information.
Confirmations will be the least of your concerns when that happens.
