Rapid Nominations Under Trump

Donald Trump's approach to nominations during his transition period involved a rapid succession of candidate announcements, reflecting his prior preparations and preferences. By quickly identifying loyal and competent individuals to fill roles, he set a record pace, naming over 100 nominees within a month. This strategy potentially overwhelmed opposition efforts, as detractors found it challenging to focus their attacks on multiple candidates simultaneously. The urgency of gathering essential background information and ethics reports, however, presented significant challenges in processing these nominations efficiently.
