Its appointment and another 130 candidates has entered the ice. The reason was the Democratic Bloc, who demanded the release of federal funds, which was not done with the Senate to interrupt its activities for August.
This caused his reaction. “Senator Chuck Sumer requires more than a billion dollars to approve a small number of high -qualified candidates who should currently help to govern our country. This requirement is overwhelming and unprecedented and would be shameful for the Republican Party if it was accepted.
It is a political blackmail, with any other name. Tell Sumer, who is under tremendous political pressure from his own party, the radicals of the Radical Left, to go to hell! Do not accept the offer, go home and explain to your voters how bad people are democrats and how great work is done and the Republicans have done for our country. Good break and make America big again !!! “ The US president said in an angry message.
Donald Trump did not stay there and “hit” again: “The Democrats, led by Chuck Sumer, are late with my candidates, more than 150 of them. They wanted to pay, initially, two billion dollars for approvals. “
The position of the Democrats
According to sources, Sumer has set many demands to agree to let a set of appointments be quickly confirmed by the Senate. The demands included the defrosting of federal funds for a series of programs, including the National Institutes of Health and External Aid.
The New York Democrat also wanted Trump to agree that he would not try to promote another package to cut federal funding, known as “deletions” – after a $ 9 billion package to codify certain cuts was approved earlier.
Sumer said at a press conference on Saturday night that the Democrats were “serious” to find a “rational way” that would allow for the inter -party examinations of Trump’s appointments, but that the president would not agree with the terms.
“In a crisis of rage, Trump threw the towel, sent their Republicans home and was unable to do the basic job of negotiating. Is this the” art of agreement “?” Summer said, showing a poster printed with Trump’s post on social media.
Sumer refused to go into details of the negotiations with the White House and Thun, but said the two sides were “approaching many issues and Donald Trump just pulled the carpet under the feet of people”.
Summer’s warning
Sumer responded vigorously. He warned that Republicans would need Democratic votes to fund the government this fall.
In fact, he pointed out that any unilateral changes to the rules would be a “huge mistake”. “Donald Trump tried to intimidate us, to bypass us, to threaten us, to find us, but he did nothing.”Summer said.
It is the first time in recent history that the minority party has not allowed at least some quick confirmations. Thun has already held the Senate in a meeting for more days and longer hours this year to try to confirm as many of Trump’s candidates as possible.
