AFAIK the Dem votes have had no effect on any Trump nominee. Hegseth had 0 Dems and only 50 out of 53 Republicans and still got confirmed. These appointments can’t be filibustered, either. Even if a couple of Dems thought Rubio would be a better option than some conspiracy theorist, it’s a moot point when they can do nothing to stop it.
