Trump wants Democrats to Approve Necessary Positions

[Fuzzy Bear]

They SHOULD approve his appointees. 

While I don't agree with the refusal to consider Garland's appointment, and will not defend that, Garland's appointment was a lifetime appointment to a separate branch of Government.  Trump's appointment to Executive Branch positions are appointments to positions where the appointees serve at the pleasure of the President.  That's a significant distinction.  The Congress was meant to have a check against the Executive in regard to Judicial appointments as they are LIFETIME appointments.  I don't agree that Garland was the place to use that, but this is what it is, and McConnell's actions on Garland is not a defense for holding up these appointments.
