About his nominees. Holy Cow, if there were only something. Let’s call it a vetting process. The nominator would find the good and bad about a nominee before the nomination is announced. May be that might work Donald. Or was Gaetz you designated mulligan?

Kind of like my statement in 2016 when I said to my oldest friends that I'd sooner vote for the next person to drive by rather than TFG - and they agreed. Of course, my POTUS choice actually "won," for all the good it did me, and the country. And now we're facing the same problem, only this time he's doubled down.
