President-elect Donald Trump has made some unconventional picks for some of the top roles in his administration, those of whom may not win universal support from Republican senators. According to reports, Democrats, and even some Republicans, worry that these nominees for top positions in government are inexperienced, conflicted and potentially reckless. 

The Senate will be split 53 Republicans to 47 Democrats in the new session, and 50 senators are needed to confirm President-elect Donald Trump's picks for top administration jobs.

But just how much disruption can America’s new senate tolerate?

On this episode of Morning Shot, Bryan DeAngelis, Partner & Head of Washington Office at Penta Group shares his insights.
