At this point Donald Trump has chosen so many supremely unfit candidates to service in government leadership positions that it's hard to keep track of them all. Alex Wagner explains how that blizzard of bad ideas may actually be Trump's plan, or at least will likely serve him.
It’s not exactly a secret that Donald Trump has chosen some highly controversial, scandal plagued, manifestly unqualified Republicans for powerful positions in the president-elect’s second term. In theory, with the Senate GOP conference poised to have a 53-member majority, the confirmation process should be relatively straightforward.
” It’s possible, if not likely, that such rhetoric will have the intended intimidating effect, but antsy GOP senators should also keep recent history in mind. For Trump and some of his most loyal supporters, Republican lawmakers have reason to be terrified of his intervention in primaries because he can singlehandedly dictate the outcomes: He tells GOP primary voters who to vote for, and they obey his directions. But recent history tells a different story.
