My guess is they would- they'd all say "We find the nominees reprehensible, but the President can choose his team"

2. And true to past nominations/appointments...
Mengele would be the new head of HHS. I guess Goebbels would get to head the FCC, eh?

5. 20 at the low end; 25 at the top. They're a bit too controversial for
a fair number of Republicans.

7. The Fuehrer deserves to have the people he wants around him
The Fuehrer's nominees deserve a straight up-or-down vote. Only the Socialists disagree with that.

11. BIDEN: "Dr. Mengele, I really like you, you're a great guy....."
"....I mean, yeah you did a couple of questionable medical experiments, but you know, who hasn't? I think you will be an outstanding Surgeon General"
