Trump's Bold Cabinet Picks Challenge Senate Approval Process
TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump is making controversial Cabinet appointments, including Tulsi Gabbard, Matt Gaetz, and Robert Kennedy Jr., to assert control over the Republican Party and test GOP senators' loyalty. Despite concerns about some nominees' past scandals, Trump aims to push them through the Senate, leveraging a new conservative majority and considering recess appointments to bypass opposition. This strategy is seen as a way to consolidate power and eliminate dissent within his party.
