Tulsi Gabbard's confirmation on shaky ground

While it's possible that all of Donald Trump's nominations could end up being confirmed, there's a chance that one of them could face a more difficult path than the rest.

Tulsi Gabbard's nomination is on shaky ground at best.

The Senate skepticism over Trump's pick for Director of National Intelligence was recently confirmed by Republican Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana.

Kennedy expects most, if not all of Trump's picks to be confirmed, but there's no doubt that Tulsi Gabbard could face a difficult battle.

"I expect most if not all of them will be confirmed," Kennedy said recently.

But that doesn't mean that Gabbard is without her problems. Instead of saying that Gabbard might get through on her qualifications, the Senator seemed to think that if she gets through, it will simply be because of how determined Donald Trump was to put her there.

"Number one, the president’s dug in like a tick. He wants these people. But number two, you’ve got to remember these confirmation hearings matter. If a nominee acts like a complete meathead or starts screaming like he or she is part of a prison riot, people are gonna say ‘woah, we need to take a second look.’ But short of that, I think most if not all will be confirmed. The one most on the bubble, as you know as well as I do, is Tulsi Gabbard," Kennedy said.

Gabbard is 43 years old, a veteran, a former member of Congress, and a one-time Democratic Presidential candidate.

Tulsi Gabbard isn't short on experience, having first been elected in 2012 to the House of Representatives. She was the first Hindu and first American Samoan to be elected to be elected.

Gabbard then ran for president in 2020 on a progressive platform but eventually dropped out and endorsed Joe Biden.

Kennedy isn't the only politician who thinks Gabbard could have a tough time being confirmed.

Florida Representative Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has accused Gabbard of being a "Russian asset."

Democratic Illinois Senator Tammy Duckworth has even told CNN that Gabbard will be unable "to pass a background check."

Do you think that Gabbard's nomination is in serious trouble? Or will Trump figure out a way to get her through?
