In this cartoon, a large bucket labeled “Trump Nominees” is filled with a bunch of rotten apples. There’s a sign attached to it that reads, “Confirm your own bushel!” The bucket is on a rug labeled “US Senate.” A donkey on the left says, “How do we know there are no bad apples in this bunch?” An elephant responds, “We don’t!”
