Nearly half of Trump's cabinet still not confirmed, a record, because of Congress
There's no urgency felt by the Congress, which has been in recess all week, but you wouldn't know that from the CNBC story, reported here:
More than a month in, nearly half of Trump's Cabinet nominees have yet to be confirmed by the Senate, the longest run for any modern president.
"It's just delay, delay, delay - it's really sad," Trump told a cheering crowd at a Conservative Political Action Committee meeting Friday. "I love setting records. But I hate having a Cabinet meeting and I see all these empty seats. I said, 'Democrats, please, approve our cabinet.'"
