and doesn't even know it..... lol ....how would have "so happy to see another white person in the Senate" gone over? .... PC lessons needed
Considering that white men compromise the overwhelming majority in Congress, far more over-represented than their numbers in the population warrants, that's a stupid comparison.

What kind of qualifications does Trump have? It's hilarious to see all of the cultists in this thread suddenly so concerned about "qualifications."
The real question, unrelated to this choice, which was a forgone conclusion; is...
Just what is the hierarchy of decision criteria for Senators? Or any other elective position for that matter?
Here you go....

Qualifications for Senators. No Person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty Years, and been nine Years a Citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen

Trump has been a Chief Executive his entire career after graduating from Wharton. So many years running something BIG.
My question is... what the hell difference does it make if the person selected is a man or a woman if they are capable of doing a good job for the country???
Senator is supposed to do a good job for MINNESOTA!

"Minnesota’s governor will appoint Democratic Lieutenant Governor Tina Smith as U.S. senator to replace Al Franken, who resigned after being accused of sexual harassment, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reported on Wednesday."
So happy to see another woman in the Senate. I believe we are in the dawning of the the era of women. It's been a long time coming.
I would love to see a lot more women in the halls of Congress. I think it would change the direction of the country in a much more humanitarian way. We might even get back on the road to becoming the nation that the world used to think we were.
