"What Trump is saying here is obvious. The slush fund and probably especially the immunity are far more important to him than Blanche is.

And anyway, Blanche, whose servile lickspittleism makes predecessor Pam Bondi look like a paragon of independence, can stay in the job more or less indefinitely as acting A.G."

"Once again, as with so many other things Trump has done, it's inconceivable to imagine any other modern American president even thinking this up, let alone doing it.

Suing himself; then installing a spineless yes-man"his former personal lawyer, no less"as acting attorney general, who then agrees to a settlement including nearly $2 billion in taxpayer money plus an immunity grant; then being willing to sacrifice said A.G.'s confirmation in order to preserve the fund and the immunity claim.

It defies belief."
