​President-elect Joe Biden’s nominees for Cabinet positions will have to “run the gauntlet” if the GOP controls the Senate next year, the third-ranking Republican in the chamber said.

“So it’s not going to be a garden party if the Republicans are in the majority. These nominees are going to have to run the gauntlet,” Sen. John Barrasso of Wyoming said on “Fox News Sunday.”

Yeah and fat boy Christie hates donuts.

And Trump expects these kind of idiots to support him in the electoral college count?

[Jim Noble]

That’s OK, the Democrats are going to win both seats in Georgia, John B., so you can stop worrying.

[brownsfan]

Translation: We want paid!

[Seruzawa]

What makes them think they will control the senate?

[ptsal]

Senator Barrasso needs to show his colors on Jan. 6th.

[Lurkinanloomin]

Yes they will, Flimsey Grahamnesty has already promised that they will.

[Lurkinanloomin]

He’s already showing his yellow belly.

[KC_Lion]

Which means the GOP Senate will rubber stamp everything Biden sends them.

Roosevelt: Speak softly and carry a big stick.

Today’s GOP: Talk a big game and carry a rabbit foot.

[Jonny7797]

That would be the wink, wink, they all do.

Truth is the Senate Republicans squishes already seated will be enough to get a lot of socialism passed.

If they get GA, then 2A is history.

[alternatives?]

Does he know who is going to win in Georgia? If so, it would have to be fixed.

[JonPreston]

Barrasso, another Man of Iron!

It's no wonder China is eating our lunch.

[Luke21]

They lick the shoes of Democrat SC appointments. Stop with this crap.

[frank ballenger]

Senator Barrasso needs to show his colors on Jan. 6th.

Nearly all the GOP guys keep their shirts on even at the beach. Otherwise their true color of yellow would show in the streak down their backs.

[Night Hides Not]

Today’s GOP: Talk a big game and carry a rabbit foot.

GOP personifies "overpromise and underdeliver".

[old curmudgeon]

Exactly.

But his statement makes one wonder how he could possibly be in public office.

Such a dumb statement.

Reminds me of “Arranging the deck chairs on the Lusitania”.

[MayflowerMadam]

Oh, please. Who was the last GOP who took a firm stand against the RATs? Donald J. Trump. The rest are pussies, and these clowns will wimp out, too. It’s either that or not be invited to the dinners and balls, and their wives will not stand for that.

[HamiltonJay]

But they are prepared to rubber stamp a fraudulent election.

[mquinn]

Doesn’t matter. Even if the R’s hold on to both Georgia seats, Romney, Murkowski, and Collins are on record that “a President should get his Cabinet picks”.
