You are a nominee for a top federal position, and a senator looks you in the eye and asks a simple, straightforward question: Did Joe Biden win the 2020 election? It seems like a straightforward matter of historical fact, yet across the board, President Trump’s nominees are executing a precise, linguistic dance to avoid giving a direct answer. Instead of a simple yes, we are hearing carefully curated phrases like Biden was certified as president or Biden served as president. This is not a coincidence or a momentary slip of the tongue. It is a systematic, scripted strategy that has become a defining feature of the current confirmation process. Critics are calling this a loyalty litmus test, a way for nominees to demonstrate their adherence to the former president's narrative without technically lying.
