If I were the president I would respond to questions regarding the reason for the firing would be “For the same reason Clinton fired all 93 of them as soon as he took office, I am sure you must have asked him why he did that so just look it up.” (Of course all they ever said was it was the presidents prerogative to fire them all without giving a reason. But they won’t give President Trump that consideration.)

...following his controversial decision...

The usual obligatory controversial adjective when none is needed nor required.

Grassley, who was serving as chairman of the Judiciary Committee when Trump nominated Berman to the Southern District...

How can Grassley get that so wrong?

He was appointed as interim U.S. Attorney.

Then, we continue on with “acting”
Nothing wrong with the acting till Senators get their head straight.

Senators approve.
Presidents fire.

Presidents have the greater power in this dynamic

This is what pisses me off.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) announced Saturday he would not move Clayton’s nomination through his committee until he receives blue-slip signoffs from Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer
