Donald Trump hasn't even been sworn in yet, and it seems his influence is waning. Senate Republicans rejected Rick Scott for Senate Majority Leader. Trump's pick for Attorney General, Matt Gaetz, had to withdraw after it became clear that many Senate Republicans would not support him. Trump named Chad Chronister as his pick to head up the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) but, after some Republican criticism, Chronister withdrew his name (causing Trump to play catch-up, thereafter claiming that HE pulled Chronister's name). And now, it looks like Trump's pick for Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth, is on the fast rack to . . . nope. 

What do these developments tell us about Trump's influence and control over the Republican Party?
