Michael Steele Slams What GOP Senators Are Doing Right Now: 'Such A Farce'
HuffPost
“These people are so full of it," said the former chair of the Republican National Committee, who also called it "just crap."
Michael Steele slammed the visits of Donald Trump’s more controversial Cabinet picks to GOP senators ― purportedly to butter them up or assuage their concerns ahead of confirmation hearings ― as “such a farce” as he suggested the nominees will end up getting confirmed anyway due to the lawmakers’ subservience to the president-elect.
“These people are so full of it,” the former chair of the Republican National Committee said on MSNBC’s “The Weekend,” of which he is a cohost.
“They are going to sit down, they are going to pontificate and they’re going to bend over and kiss the behind on this process and that’s how this is going to play out,” Steele continued.
“All this drama right now, all this sitting down, ‘Oh, I have concerns,’ is just crap because they don’t have the will to do the right thing on Patel, on Tulsi, on RFK Jr. or on anyone else who is ill-equipped and unfit to serve in these important positions,” the yearslong Trump critic envisioned.
Americans “are going to be sitting back here in 18 months going, ‘Well, what the hell happened?’” he added.
