I'm trying to figure that out. He does it on a holiday weekend when all the news is about the RATs caucus, so it doesn't get as much press, the conservatives (who really care) have been off the reservation of late due to $pending, might now be back on board?

Just thoughts off the top of my head...

Think so? Appointing someone accused of being racist right before MLK Day?

I'm not sure what the thinking there was.
