Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., said Sunday he “couldn’t be happier” with President-elect Trump’s Cabinet nominees and said he would work to get them through as quickly as possible.

When Paul was asked during an appearance on “Sunday Morning Futures” whether he would support all of Trump’s recommendations for his inner circle, the senator replied, “I couldn’t have made a better choice.”

“I will support the vast majority from day one,” the senator said. “We will try to get Kristi Noem through the Department of Homeland Security, Russ Vought (Office of Management and Budget). … I think in the first week you’ll have approved half a dozen of them.”

Paul said he would lead a committee responsible for confirming the nominees, adding: “I promise to get them through as quickly as possible.”
