85. You wanna know what I think?

No? Well I'll tell you anyway. Rather than do the right thing, those 31 Senators have decided
to go-along-to-get-along. Go along with confirming someone who is not qualified for the
job and who is just another "yes" man for Trump? How does this help our Veterans? It doesn't.
If this leads to a Trump edict to close all the VA Hospitals, would these 31 Senators not share some
responsibility in that event?
