Should Trump be Charged with the Costs of Confirmation Hearings?

[candycorn]

We’ve had 2 secretaries of State, two VA Secretaries, two CIA directors, two HHS secretaries, two Labor Secretaries. And this carnival has only been in town for 16 months (believe it or not).

At this pace, we are looking at having 40-50 confirmation hearings just for the cabinet level positions; not to mention the other appointments that need Senate consent, the FBI checks that go along with it, the costs of changing the websites, the stationaries, name plates, etc…

We need to start charging the Cheeto for these costs which are not standard and customary with any other administration.

Maybe Trump should turn to a Temp Agency?

Well, it was Greg Abbot’s idea…he wanted to charge one of the GrOPers who is resigning in disgrace for the costs of the special election to replace him.

Since we all know that this congress is TRULY a do-nothing, corrupt-laden and mostly populated by Trump cult members, confirmation hearings gives them something to pass the time on and maybe get on FOX for a bit.

The OP intrudes into the domain of Alt Right la la land.

Leave it alone.

The President gets to choose who he wants: the best people.
