Rubio will not be denied, and will probably get some, if not many, Dem votes. As Trumpers go, he has been more responsible than most, albeit still a sad example of trading his dignity and self-respect for higher office.
Bondi is superficially qualified for her position that will be central to Trump’s revenge agenda. I’m not overly troubled by her refusal to say Trump lost or Biden won in 2020; that’s just part of the rite of passage to stay in Trump’s good graces. What remains to be seen is whether she will do his bidding to investigate and/or prosecute his perceived enemies (e.g., Jack Smith, Adam Kinzinger, Liz Cheney, Adam Schiff, Fani Willis, the Manhattan DA) and give his crime-committing friends free passes. We’ll see if and where she draws the line.
Hegseth is a piece of work, a perfect loose cannon fit for a Fox talking head, but a backwards choice for DoD. There is no evidence that our armed forces have been weakened by DEI; in fact, as the Dems questioning him recounted, inclusiveness and tolerance has strengthened the military. I don’t care much about his financial acumen, though it would be helpful if the agency in charge of our bloated military budget could pass an audit. My sense is he’s going to find anti-woke “solutions” for nonexistent problems.
