Senior Republican plots 'scheme' to derail 4 Trump nominationsMSNBC's Katty Kay
"According to MSNBC contributor Katty Kay, incoming Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) is working behind the scenes with his GOP colleagues to cripple the nominations of at least four of Donald Trump's nominees to his cabinet.
With Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) already having withdrawn his name for consideration to be the next attorney general, Kay reported to the "Morning Joe" panel that there is a great amount of consternation among Republicans about several of the president-elect's other Cabinet picks, and noted that former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, slated to head the Department of National Intelligence, appears to be at the top of the list.
"I had a chance on Sunday night to be at an event here in Washington, there were a lot of senators there and I asked a couple of them what they thought of Tulsi Gabbard's pick, given what had happened in Syria over the weekend, hours beforehand and they kind of rolled their eyes and shook their heads in some kind of dismay," she reported. "There were Democrats amongst them, this is going to be a challenge for them.""
