Dean pointed to Jones' credentials as a Yale Law School graduate and best-selling author.

A loss for what country? Because it surely isn’t a loss for America. ;)

Among thinking people, actually a huge reason not to give him ANY power or responsibility.

Dean pointed to Jones' credentials as a Yale Law School graduate and best-selling author.
