Diverse Ideologies and Concerns Shape Trump's Cabinet Choices

Senate Democrats are adopting a more measured approach to Donald Trump's Cabinet picks compared to their staunch opposition during his first term. While they are unlikely to support nominees like Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Pete Hegseth, and Tulsi Gabbard, they are not expected to engage in the same level of public resistance as before. Democratic leaders, including Sen. John Fetterman and Senate Democratic Whip Dick Durbin, emphasize the importance of exercising constitutional responsibilities without unnecessary obstruction, although some Democrats may still seek to delay confirmations as a form of political payback.
