Trump accuses Democrats of political blackmail

on August 2nd local time, Chuck Schumer, the minority leader of the US Senate and a Democrat, said at a briefing that the Republican Party needs to cooperate with the Democrats. Trying to change the rules alone will only harm the interests of the people. Previously, the US Senate failed to fully complete the approval of multiple executive nominations by US President Trump. Trump angrily accused Chuck Schumer of obstructing the nominations on social media, leading to a slowdown in the process. Republicans said they may try to change the Senate rules to speed up the approval process when they reconvene in September. According to the US Congress schedule, the Senate and the House of Representatives entered their annual summer recess in August. It is during this time that the Senate plans to hold hearings on multiple nominations, including federal agencies, ambassadorships, and judicial positions. Previously, Trump had proposed that Senate Republican leader John Thune cancel the August recess.
