We need to be honest with ourselves and accept that no amount of forceful could make Mitch confirm anyone he didn’t approve of. Trump had no leverage because for 4 years the Senate did not recess specifically so Trump could not make a recess appointment. Trump finally tried to get people into spots with interim heads or by having the subordinate people take on responsibilities, Then they sued him.
The Senate worked against him all the way

Should be reposted daily so that it might sink into the thick skulls of the crybabies whining over Trump’s appointments.
