摘要

DONALD TRUMP may be wedded to the Republican dogma of small government, given that many key positions are still vacant almost a year after his inauguration. But Feedback suspects that if the president has been slow to choose his nominees, it is only because he is carefully selecting the ones who will most irritate his Democratic opponents. Witness the most gripping TV to come out of the US recently, the bleakly comic series known as "hearings on nominees for the Environmental Protection Agency". Here, visibly exasperated Democrat senators interrogate the scientific credentials of candidates whose resumes might struggle to reach the bottom of the page they're printed on.
