U.S. Senator Tom Tillis appeared on ABC News this past Sunday and made it clear he has no issue with President Trump himself. Instead, he pointed the finger at the advice Trump gets from his team, especially when it comes to cabinet picks like Kristi Nome. Tillis explained that Trump relies on suggestions from others for nominations, and he does not expect the President to know every detail about. Candidates He specifically called out Nome's limited experience as a former governor and short time in the House, saying it did not prepare her for such a big role. Many see this as a calculated move by Tillis to bash the administration without targeting Trump directly. It might shield him from backlash, but critics argue it is not convincing anyone, including the President. Tillis compared Trump to a company CEO who needs solid advisors since no one can master everything. Still, he voted to confirm Nome raising questions about his own checks on these choices. In the end, if Trump claims credit for wins, he must own the losses too, and dodging that

accountability just muddies the waters for everyone, involved. Stay informed with Durham News Today, AI-powered updates. I'm Corey with The Story.
