RE: Trump appointment

One of Trump’s personal flaws — from hiring Michael Cohen to be his lawyer, to choosing Chris Wray as FBI director, he’s made a lot of selection mistakes.

A number of the "Trump appointments" are McConnell stooges.

ESPECIALLY on the DC District People's Court.

One of the "tells" is the vote count.

In Kelly's case, it was 94 to 2 for confirmation.
