President Donald Trump endorsed the idea of keeping the Senate in Washington, DC seven days a week to get his political and judicial nominees confirmed if Democrats continued obstructing the confirmation votes.
The idea was proposed to the president by Fox and Friends host Pete Hegseth during a phone interview on Thursday morning.
When asked if he supported the idea of Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell keeping the Senate in session, Trump replied, “He should be doing that, and I think he will be doing that.”
He expressed his frustration that Democrats were “obstructionists” by demanding 30 hours per nominee debate, creating a massive backlog of confirmation votes.

ReplyDeleteCongress needs this proposal be made into an Executive Order by Pres. Trump. They will then work an accomplish something, Congress refuses to work but love all those 4 day weekends and 3 months vacations they give themselves on their $170,000 + salaries.
ReplyDeleteAnd yet WE let them stay in. WE keep electing presidents who care more for the rich entitled than the working class.
DeleteKeep 'em eight days a week if necessary.
