are the new appointments by 45 to various boards effective only during his administration? [View all]

Do people who think a limerick is poetry, and if they hum the theme music to Masterpiece theater means they have 'culture' and hence dooming places like the Kennedy Center for the Arts to the skim milk of the arts?
Can Biden replace them or at least even out their influence with better people?
I'm confused by the frequent announcements of his appointments lately, is it all for show? .. so these folks can add being on the board to their CV?

No. They have a term and because Trump is only now getting around to filling, they will hlthe2b Dec 2020 #1

Not necessarily for a full term onenote Dec 2020 #3

Again, though, the issue is he's let these positions remain unfilled until the end of his Presidency hlthe2b Dec 2020 #5

Pretty standard situation onenote Dec 2020 #6

Yes. But I was answering the question of the OP--can they be removed? NO hlthe2b Dec 2020 #7

Correct onenote Dec 2020 #8
