Former wrestling executive Linda McMahon confirmed to lead the SBA

The Senate on Tuesday confirmed former wrestling entertainment executive Linda McMahon to lead the Small Business Administration.

The vote was 81-19.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky says McMahon will "prioritize growing jobs over growing government bureaucracy" and calls that a welcome change from Washington.

McMahon served as the chief executive officer at World Wrestling Entertainment Inc. before stepping down to run twice for the Senate in Connecticut. She lost both races despite spending some $100 million

Trump is a traitor yeoman6987, something you have failed to address. All your posts seem to be saying it's futile to challenge Trump. You also seem to be defending him in a subtle way.
