Like all: “Like them all, just wondering the effect of losing these senators and congressmen will have on our majorities in both the senate and the house.”

Like al: “Trump, ultimately, has to pick people who agree with his agenda, know what they are doing in regards to their roles, and who will be loyal. I trust him to make the right decisions for his Cabinet.”

Like some: “Don't know much about Mike Waltz. Lee Zeldin is good. Marco Rubio is a big fat no from me. Elise Stefanik seems ok. Stephen Miller is an enthusiastic YES! Not sure about Susie Wiles. I am concerned about Trump taking R's from House and Senate because we need everyone we can get in there.”

Dislike some: “I just don't understand the Rubio pick or the Noem pick. Very capable in another position. But, Sec of State and Homeland Security????? Crossing my fingers, and will have to trust President Trump. That's why we voted for him.”
