After failing to vet him, Is Trump cutting his VA nominee loose?

Let's just leave this position vacant, since nobody suits.

Ronny Jackson, a Trump hand-picked man wasn't qualified to handle VA anyway. this just more point of chaos coming from his office.

I wonder what would have been said if this was the Obama administration. WOW!!!

Just one more case of Democratic obstruction. There's 200 nominations held up in the Senate. To me this just proves these people aren't needed anyway.

The head of The Department of Veterans Affairs is not needed? That is because you have no need for that department to run efficiently anyway.

You Democrats don't want a functioning VA. You want some bureaucrat to continue ****ing up your massive bureaucracy, just like has been done for ages. I say you couldn't do worse than with a vacant position, but good luck.

The Republican are in power and they have power of all the committees that vet these department heads appointed by The President and all of this is happening on his watch and that is a sad FACT.

It is The Republicans Steve and that too is a FACT. They have the power now until the next election.

I don't feel sorry for any of you partisans who are working for the overthrow of our government. You get what you deserve Ron.

The Republican are in power and they have power of all the committees that vet these department heads appointed by The President and all of this is happening on his watch and that is a sad FACT.

I am sure that you can see that FACT.

Jon Tester is a Democrat. He wants this position left vacant and he got what he wanted because the only thing that matters to him, to Nicole, to you, is to overthrow the will of the electors.

It appears that some Publicans' had joined hands in that decision Steve. Always keep in mind, that in the halls of power in Washington DC is ran by MAJORITY RULE.

Always keep in mind Ron that Washington is run by partisan politicians and gullible citizens. Honest men like Jackson often can't navigate the corruption that is you.

Steve, Rear Adm. Ronny Jackson dropped his bid Thursday to lead the Veterans Affairs Department, ending a Senate inquiry into his background but still facing a likely military review into allegations about his conduct while serving as the president’s personal physician.

In short Ronny could not stand a public vetting and that has nothing to do with me. WOW!!!

So Obama was wrong about him Ron?

No Ronnie is a great doctor but as a administrator, that is the question. Maybe that is the reason why he stepped down from the nomination process, Steve.

Sorry Ron, the question wasn't about his qualifications, there was an allegation about drinking and driving while attending to President Obama. Didn't Obama notice?

Yahweh is good Steve believe me.

Tell that to Jon Tester.

Not that you ever answer a question Ron, but have you seen Obama's performance reviews of Jackson?

“Ronny’s positive impact cannot be overstated. He is a tremendous asset to the entire White House team. Already at a level of performance and responsibility that far exceeds is current rank, promote to Rear Admiral now,” said an undated performance review that was signed by Obama.

Remember Steve, Ronnie took himself out of the running because of the cloud he finds himself under.

No Ron, Ronny withdrew because he didn't have the appetite for your Democrat BS. In the meantime the VA is without a head bureaucrat. No loss there.

The Republicans is head of the vetting process at this point in history.

Only a hardcore partisan like yourself Ron, thinks that the Republicans are responsible for this fiasco. Too bad for our veterans.

Indications are that Tester has committed political suicide. He's up for reelection, Trump won Montana by 20 points, and now he's got a big fat target on his ample backside. Yee haw.

Are you talking about this Steve?

Democratic Sen. Jon Tester of Montana is responding to President Donald Trump's calls for him to resign by saying he has a duty to make sure veterans in his state get what they've earned.

Tester says, "I'll never stop fighting for them."

Tester is responding to Trump's statement that Tester "should resign" after going public with allegations that prompted White House physician. Ronny Jackson to withdraw from consideration to be secretary of the Department of Veterans Affairs.

That's what I'm talking about except there's no basis to Tester's accusations.

Sound like something happened then, that Ronnie did not want out in the public.

Sounds like Tester lied. Ronny will be fine but Tester will answer to the voters. And of course no one gives a damn about the poor veterans mired in the bureaucracy.
