Republicans such as Mitch McConnell and Graham have told Trump that they will NOT confirm any other AG appointment.
If I were Trump and the senate would not confirm a new AG I would fire the “acting” AG if he didn’t clean this rat’s nest up. I would fire the next “acting” AG in two weeks if he didn’t do the job, etc., etc. Eventually you would get to a person who is not a swamp dwelling deep state felon. With the blatant evidence of corruption growing every day the status quo is not the answer.
“Republicans such as Mitch McConnell and Graham have told Trump that they will NOT confirm any other AG appointment.”
It’s called recess appointments. The Senate will be going on recess about the 22nd I believe for about ten days. Any position normally requiring Senate confirmation can be filled during that time and they will serve for roughly one year before requiring confirmation or stepping down. Fire Sessions or preferably ask him to resign because of health/family/etc and appoint the new guy in the afternoon.
There has to be a solid conservative out in flyover country somewhere who is up for the job. We don’t need/want a Washington insider or someone who makes the rounds with Fox News or any other television/radio show for guest appearances. We want a young but solid prosecutor who answers to the at 1600.
But that is assuming that Trump wants a real live AG vs the potted plant he has at DOJ now?
