During a private two-and-a-half-hour candidate forum for GOP leaders, Senators John Thune, John Cornyn, and Rick Scott discussed various key issues. The topics included their positions on recess appointments for President-elect Donald Trump’s appointees and the upcoming debt limit fight.
Senator Markwayne Mullin, a supporter of Thune, described the discussion as 'very cordial.' He praised Thune for explaining how recess appointments could be utilized to confirm Trump’s nominees.
