This admin, for whatever reasons, is months behind the normal schedual.
This admin must really suck to be "months behind" after 5 days.
Please describe your process for properly vetting, nominating, debating, and confirming all (or most) ambassadorships in 4+ days, since you see that as "normal practice". Extra credit: name any three administrations that have done so.
I would hope that the Secretary of State would have some say in ambassadorships, in which case the process would also be constrained until the SecState nominee is confirmed.
- learc83 10y agoThe administration shouldn't have had every post already filled. What is unusual here is that an incoming administration usually asks the current ambassador to stay until a replacement is appointed. The Trump team immediately accepted all the ambassadors resignations, which is what is unusual.
