Over the last two months, there has been a lot of talk about Trump’s cabinet appointments and which ones people believe will be approved by the Senate. Some people have suggested that Trump will use recess appointments to get around Senate approval.

Democrats and the media will attack him for doing so, but they would do that anyway. The country wants the new Trump administration up and running ASAP. There is a ton of work that needs to be done and the people cannot be made to wait. […]
