US: Senate On Track To Confirm All Of Trump Executive Nominees
Feb-05 19:13
The Senate is on track to confirm two more of Trump’s Cabinet nominees this week - Scott Turner to lead the Department of Housing and Urban Development and Russell Vought to lead the Office of Management and Budget.
- If the two are confirmed, the Senate will have confirmed 13 Cabinet members within the first three weeks of Trump’s second term – eclipsing the confirmation speed of his first term and that of former President Joe Biden’s term.
- Politico writes: “The firehose of news from the White House risks obscuring what ranks as one of President Donald Trump’s most stunning feats: This was the week that he finally broke the Senate,” allowing for the confirmation of Cabinet officials, “who once would have seemed unimaginable for their posts.”
- Axios notes: “All of President Trump's nominees for the most senior positions in government are on track to get confirmed — a rarity for any modern president, and a particular coup for Trump and his cast of "destroyers."
- Axios has published a useful guide to the status of Trump’s Cabinet nominees here.
- Bettors at Polymarket now consider every Trump nominee close to a 100% implied probability of confirmation.
