JD Vance is facing a tricky task on Capitol Hill. 

The vice president-elect has arrived at the Capitol to shore up support for Trump’s controversial cabinet picks. 

He’ll spend the week organising meetings between Matt Gaetz and Pete Hegseth and key Republican senators involved in their confirmation process. 

US Correspondent Mitch McCann told Ryan Bridge that Gaetz is with Vance today, and it’ll be a tall order to get him confirmed as people have already spoken out against him.  

He says that it would be quite the defeat for Donald Trump if he was rejected.
