Senate Prepares for Trump's Cabinet Confirmations

News summary

As the Senate prepares for confirmation hearings for President-elect Donald Trump's Cabinet nominees, the timeline for confirmation remains uncertain. Senate Majority Leader John Thune has pledged to expedite the process, but previous delays and existing controversies surrounding nominees could hinder progress. A recent poll indicates widespread public skepticism regarding Trump’s appointees, with only a third of respondents expressing approval and many Democrats disapproving altogether. Additionally, some nominees have faced delays due to outstanding background checks and financial reviews, which could result in fewer confirmations by Inauguration Day. This situation has prompted concerns from both watchdogs and Democrats about the thoroughness of the vetting process. The Senate's ability to navigate these challenges remains to be seen as they work to confirm Trump's picks quickly.
