I think it's really important to kind of think about the context with which Warsh is stepping into this job.
One of the things that has kind of dogged him is his close relationship with Trump and questions that have swirled around his ability to operate independently.
And one of the labels that he's really had to try to jettison is that he is going to be Trump's sock puppet.
We heard that in the confirmation hearings from a lot of Democrats who were questioning just how independent he's going to be.
And so I think that Warsh is going to be coming in with this shadow over his head, having to kind of prove that he is going to operate independently, as he said he's going to do.
The ayes are 54, the nays are 45.
The nomination is confirmed.
Senator, absolutely not.
No, I'm honored.
