If Trump were just testing the limits of Senate tolerance I doubt that he would be doing so with such high profile appointments. Obviously the Democrats and their media allies are setting their hair on fire over the announcements which has its own benefit both as distractions and the "owning the libs" thing. I think these are serious nominations and he fully expects the Senate to comply. He isn't testing HIS limits to see how far he can go. He is testing Senate Republicans for their loyalty and how hard they will fight on his behalf. If they are found wanting he will surely have a list Republicans who need to be removed from their seats.
John Thune, if found wanting, may only be Majority Leader for two years.
Democrats would do well to grill the nominees for good sound bites and TV but otherwise just give Trump what he wants. Send in the Clowns!
