Opinion: Thoughts on a few of Trump's nominees

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

54% : So, let's review, with a hat tip to Chung, who called Gaetz's nomination a "win-win" in his own Gazette column: The MAGA base gets its due from Trump via the outside-the-box pick.
50% : But what has earned Noem this role is not necessarily her qualifications but her loyalty to Trump.
46% : The Protecting the Right to Organize Act, an omnibus bill that would rob freelancers of their right to contract independently and give big labor unions a massive amount of unchecked power, is the opposite of sound business policy.
45% : Trump gets credit with the base but is spared that particular round of confirmation drama.
39% : McMahon has been nominated to lead the Department of Education, an executive department that Trump and many supporters want to see eliminated and its operations transferred to other departments or state education bureaus.
36% : With her strong support for reforms such as school choice and charter schools and her existing experience in reducing government waste, I'm optimistic about what McMahon will bring to the table.
