rawstory.com

Donald Trump's team is reportedly anxious about Senator Mitch McConnell's silence regarding Tulsi Gabbard's nomination as Director of National Intelligence. They believe McConnell's lack of support could jeopardize her confirmation. Analysts suggest that Gabbard is a key target for Democrats, and Trump's team fears that if McConnell opposes her, it may encourage other moderate Republicans to do the same. This situation marks a shift from previous nominations, where Trump had more solid backing from Senate Republicans. The outcome of Gabbard's confirmation is now uncertain.
