Trump’s announced nominees will indeed have a disruptive impact on the federal government. They should. If America wanted more of the same, Vice President Kamala Harris was on the ticket carrying the torch for the status quo.
Somewhere down I-65 nestled in the loblolly pines, I can already envision the new sign, “Confirm Trump nominees, or the Tuberville will get you!” Alabama’s senior senator, emboldened by Republican success, has already declared that “President Trump and JD Vance are going to be running the Senate.” The dust hasn’t even settled on Trump’s construction of the Republican Party’s new big tent coalition, and Tuberville is ready to throw people out.
I agree with Tuberville, that senators should not drag their feet and “get in the way” of presidential nominees. At the same time senators have a constitutional function that’s distinct from the president. None of that means Republican senators should rubber stamp every Trump nominee and refuse to raise glaring concerns. After all, they were elected too.
