Do it in wartime, the better to underscore how nakedly unpatriotic and morally vacant the GOP has become.

Because that's what Republicans are now, as they have always been, racist, obstructionist, dishonest to the core, and greedy beyond description.

Better to let them practice such malevolent behavior upon their own.

By doing so, the delay and obstruction actually concentrates much more power in the hands of the Commander-in-Chief, who assumes some of the empty cabinet position's authority.

When the President starts personally carving out programs, operations, and systems within the Department of Defense, under his own authority, don't come crying to us, you stupid, small-minded savages. You created this opportunity.
