        voters are noticing Dems obstruction and do not like what they see. It is hard not to see that Ds became party of No.

        additionally, I'm assuming you see the hypocrisy of calling dems the party of no?

        In 2009, "No" was obstructionism. In 2017, it's because the candidate is flawed. Dissent is in vogue again.

        When the stated plan is to answer "no" before the questions are even imagined, that's obstructionism.

        But DeVos is inexperienced and handled her interviews poorly, and Sessions had a Jim Crowe history to answer for.

        At least Mattis has shown competence and respect for the office.

        Record-setting opposition due to historically disqualified candidates, most of whom actively fought the organizations they now lead

        The entire administration lacks any mandate, and Trump's conduct continues to drag it deeper into the red.

        @POTUS It would be hard to imagine a cabinet and president more disasterous & despicable than tRumps.

        @POTUS @realDonaldTrump probably at least partly because the nominees are all terrible choices for their respective positions.
