Republican Senator Says Any Lawmaker Who Votes Against Trump Cabinet Picks Will Face Removal from Senate: 'He Deserves the Team He Wants'

Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville from Alabama warned that anyone who votes against President-elect Donald Trump's cabinet picks, including former Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz as attorney general, will be removed from their position.

"Everybody's got an opinion up here but at the end of the day, President Trump was elected by an enormous vote, and he deserves the team around him that he wants. It's not up to us to determine that," Tuberville said during a Wednesday appearance on Fox Business.

Tuberville went on to remind his fellow senators that they were not elected president and they have one vote.

"Vote with President Trump," Tuberville added "This is the last chance we're going to have to save this country. And if you want to get in the way, fine. But we're going to try to get you out of the Senate, too, if you try to do that."

Trump's cabinet picks, which also include Tulsi Gabbard as director of national intelligence and former FOX host Pete Hegseth as Secretary of Defense, will not be confirmed until they are vetted and approved by the Senate.
