Linda McMahon confirmed 81-19 as head of SBA.

Why SBA? I figured that her experience with the steriod culture of her company would have made her a shoo-in for FDA.
Amateur hour at the DJT admin.

I think people are often misled by the notion that a person's career has to directly correlate with these specific positions. It's not the Treasury or the Justice Department. It's managing a budget and a group of people who oversee a wide set of issues; some are completely unrelated.

Thing is, they did it by running over other small wrestling business's. I like Linda more than anyone else in that family, actually she's the only one I like, but I question how someone who built an empire by destroying small business is the best advocate for them now. Maybe if you aren't a wrestling outfit she would be on your side. I'm good with her being confirmed though.

Partially true.
What you want from an agency head like this is someone who understands what it going on in the field your agency is supposed to be covering. Having been involved with the evolution of the WWF/WWE since the beginning when her husband bought out his father's small regional wrestling promotion to the publicly traded empire that it is today she is intimately familiar with the obstacles that small businesses face.

So you're pre-judging someone before they have a chance to perform the job they were appointed for? I guess your liberal Senators are amateur as well since there was bi-partisan support 81 to 19 to confirm McMahon.
