Daily reminder your President is senile

- Trump has pending nomineees to five (5) countries
- Dems have no power to obstruct; they can't be filibustered
- Neither of the above things register as a part of his reality compared to what he saw on the TV
EDIT: It has been pointed out to me that the OP didn't include 4 ambassadors already approved (China, Congo, Senegal, Israel). I have edited it to reflect that only 5 are currently pending before the Senate.

Each day I become more and more convinced Trump has a bad case of dementia.

I think he just doesn't understand how it's supposed to work, and his cronies won't explain it to him.

Just a freindly reminder:
He has the nuclear codes.
Sleep well.

According to this article
LINK /
Trump had 36 nominations waiting for confirmation, as of May 17
And of course even with a minority and doing away with the filibuster there are ways the Democrats can slow crawl the nominations, and they ARE doing it.
Now, that doesn't change the fact that Trump should have had these nominations ready to go long before he actually did, because he absolutely should have, but to pretend like the Democrats aren't purposely dragging things out simply for political reasons is s a bit much.

"Want approval!"
Sums him up pretty well. He should just lurk around here.

Saving money.
Ambassadors are pretty much useless. All they do is talk.
Posted on 6/5/17 at 9:03 am to Iosh
So, how many countries don't already have ambassadors?
Posted on 6/5/17 at 9:03 am to Iosh
I'll gladly defend Trump sometimes
But his tweets over the last 36 hours are mind-numbingly stupid

Partisan issues aside, it seems incredible to me that no one in the White House has any administrative skill in government. Whomever is running the administrative side of things is absolutely terrible at it.

And before I check let's make a bet. I'll bet you up to $100 to the charity of the winner's choice both of them had submitted more. I'm guessing this shitty post doesn't even reflect actual doubt on your part, you just felt the need to say something.

I guess this push to call POTUS Trump senile sounded good at alt left 8chan, /polLeft, /polFakelibertarians, polFakemoderates, and DU, but you are the ignorant imbecile.

According to a Congressional Research Service report, these presidentially-appointed positions requiring Senate approval can be categorized as follows:
- Secretaries of the 15 Cabinet agencies, deputy secretaries, under secretaries and assistant secretaries, and general counsels of those agencies: Over 350 positions
- Justices of the Supreme Court: 9 positions (Supreme Court justices serve for life subject to death, retirement, resignation or impeachment.)
Certain jobs in the independent, non-regulatory executive branch agencies, like NASA and the National Science Foundation: Over 120 positions
- Director positions in the regulatory agencies, like the Environmental Protection Agency and the Federal Aviation Administration: Over 130 positions
- U.S. Attorneys and U.S. Marshals: About 200 positions
- Ambassadors to foreign nations: Over 150 positions
- Presidential appointments to part-time positions, like the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System: Over 160 positions

In good conscience, I cannot take the bet for I already know the answer. I'll let you figure it out.
