Trump’s tears are lost on me here. He could have thrown a dart at the phone book and got an attorney general as effective as Barr or Sessions.

You seem to be under the false impression that Trump can pick anyone he wants. Trump can only pick people that mcconnell will approve and I suspect that approval happens before the pick is made. Then there are recess appointments, mcconnell has never put the senate in recces while Trump has been POTUS. Trump has been paralyzed by the senate gopE.

*************

And don’t forget the GOP House under Paul Ryan. Another GOP disaster for Trump — and us.

With “friends” like the GOP who needs enemies?

So I guess the country would REALLY be in a mess if Trump picked an absolute rabid pitbull for AG and fought McConnell.

And then he did it again. And again. All the while letting the voters and public know why he was picking the men he was picking and why McConnell was objecting. Yelling his thoughts from his bully pulpit every night. And maybe to this day we still didn’t have an AG.

I guess if Trump did that we would really find the country in a mess right now.

This kind of treachery could cost McC on November 3. Presumably though he will win again, 1984, 1990, 1996, 2002, 2008, 2014, 2020; Kentuckians can’t get enough of McC.

POTUS can fire Barr and make a temporary ‘acting’ appointment.

But the firing happens after POTUS gives warning. He did so yesterday, publicly.

Barr is on notice and if he doesn’t like it, he can step down.

He should tell the Turtle to get them through or he will publicly denounce him and fire his bitch wife from the cabinet.

Or shoot him
