Walter Jacobson’s Perspective 2-13-25: The Senators and the President are playing the same old money games
Update: 2025-02-13
Description
If you’re not watching the Senate hearings about President Trump’s choices for his Cabinet, you’re not missing much that in my opinion is worth watching. Unless what you want to see are a few distinguished and undistinguished members of the Senate making long-winded speeches as if they’re still campaigning for or against Donald Trump moving into the White House. Hardly a word is being said in the hearings about who or what specific skills are necessary for a Cabinet member to be able to instruct, then advise the President on how to handle a sudden wildfire in California or a persistent problem in public education anywhere in the country. The Senate inquisitors are on showtime live TV, sounding off on important things they say they’re doing and how well they say they know who should or who should not be in President Trump’s Cabinet. What the Senators know best is politics, who President Trump’s political friends are and what’s motivating their speeches and votes during the same old, same old kind of hearings. Who among the Senators will the President bless with millions of his millions to help them campaign for reelection. All in all on Capitol Hill, the Senators and the President are playing the same old, same old money games.
