**Oh Good, the Senate Republicans Are at It Again, Pretending to Have a Spine. 🙄**
Oh good, the Senate Republicans are at it again, pretending to have a spine. 🙄
BREAKING: Senate GOP confirms they will “thoroughly vet” Trump’s latest cabinet nominees—by asking if they’ve watched Fox & Friends today.
In a stunning display of institutional courage, Senate Republicans have announced a “rigorous, multi-step confirmation process” for Trump’s new picks. Step one: nod. Step two: vote yes. Step three: pretend you had concerns but “the country needs leadership.” AITA for thinking this is just a live-action remake of Weekend at Bernie’s with more tax cuts?
Sources say the nominees include a guy who once called the Department of Education a “Ponzi scheme for crayons,” a former mattress salesman whose only qualification is “firing people on TV,” and a 73-year-old who thinks “climate change” is what happens when you leave the AC on too long. TL;DR: The bar is in Hell, and they brought a shovel.
Update: One senator reportedly asked if the nominee could “make a mean steak” and now the whole thing is on hold. Democracy, baby! 🎉#SenateGOP #TrumpNominees #AccountabilityWho
